Description

Hill Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1600. It has two storeys and attics, constructed with a timber frame and roughcast render, and is topped with 20th-century plain tiles. The building features an internal chimney stack with a plain red brick shaft. There are various two-light casement windows, some from the 19th century and others from the 20th century, each with a single horizontal bar across the lights. A 20th-century enclosed gabled porch is present, along with boarded eaves. The layout follows a three-cell lobby entrance plan. The main ceiling beams are only visible on the ground floor, while the upper floor boasts good original ceilings with chamfer and curved stops to the joists and main beams. The roof consists of seven bays, incorporating one row of clasped purlins and one row of unstepped butt purlins, with cranked windbraces supporting some of the trusses.
