Description
No. 13 Hill Street is a villa built around 1840, with some minor alterations made in the 20th century. The building features rendered brickwork and a roof covered with Welsh slate.
The front elevation faces south and consists of two storeys with four bays. The bay at the west end is slightly advanced and has an extended roof slope. The central bay has a two-storey porch topped with a shallow-pitched roof and slender moulded barge boards. An arched opening leads into the porch, which has a decorative mask on the arch keystone, leading to an enclosed doorway with a half-glazed four-panel door. On either side of the porch are hornless glazing bar sash windows with margin lights on both storeys. The window openings have rendered plain heads and shallow bracketed cills. The porch also features a sash window on the first floor, while the west end bay has stacked sash windows that match the pattern of the other windows. The east gable has stacked sash windows on either side.
The interior of the villa has not been inspected. This building forms a group with Nos. 3 and 5, Nos. 7 and 11, and Nos. 15 and 17 on Hill Street.
