Description
Hill Place is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the 18th and 19th centuries. It is timber framed and plastered, with a roof covered in modern red clay tiles. The building has four bays facing southeast and features an external stack made of gault brick, which is partly plastered, on the left return wall, as well as an internal stack at the rear of the right end, with an 18th or 19th-century extension beyond.
The house is two storeys high and has two 2-storey bays with 20th-century casement windows, along with a mid-19th-century sash window of four lights on each floor. Above the door is a Gothick window with a two-centred head. The entrance features a six-panel door, with the upper four panels glazed, set within a moulded doorcase that has a dentilled pediment. The roof has a plain plaster parapet and is hipped.
Inside, the main structure is plastered, but some of the 17th-century oak frame is visible in a few places. While many of the beams over the ground floor have been significantly altered for plastering, two of them still show their stop-chamfered profiles with lamb's tongue stops.
