Description

Hill Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates back to the 16th or 17th century, with later additions. It features a timber-frame structure with visible principal beams, along with brick and brick-and-flint additions. The roofs are covered with modern pantiles. The building is one and a half storeys high and has a mix of 19th and 20th-century casement windows. It includes three sloping dormers and has a steep-pitched roof. There is one axial stack in the original wing, while the additions to the sides and rear are not considered of special interest.
