Description

24-30 Hillshot is a Grade II listed building constructed in 1912 by Bennett and Bidwell. It consists of grouped terraces designed for workmen, based on standard plans developed for the Howard Cottage Society. The building is one and a half storeys high, featuring one window each on its symmetrical facades, which are enhanced by a mix of large and small gabled dormers. The roofs are tiled, with brown brick ridge stacks, and the walls are roughcast.

The small dormers have weather-boarded gables, and the windows are two and three light casements with glazing bars and tile labels. Some of the larger gables have labels that extend as strings. The ground floor showcases three-light splayed bay windows with cornices, and the doorways are recessed and segmental-arched, also featuring tile labels and boarded doors. There is a linking range with gabled entrances flanked by segmental-headed three-light windows. The original colour scheme has been retained, with cream walls and windows, and green doors, window sills, and pipework. This building is included for its group value with other nearby structures.
