Description
Hill House is an 18th century red brick house located on the south side of Maldon Road in Danbury. Originally a posting house known as The Blue Boar, it has undergone alterations and additions in the 19th and 20th centuries.

The windows are modern casements from the 20th century. A raised brick band runs between the storeys, and the roof is tiled, incorporating two flat-headed dormers.
