Hill Farmhouse

Hill Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1500, which was partly demolished and rebuilt after a fire in the late 19th century. The building has two storeys and is timber-framed and plastered, with the upper floor jettied on three sides. It features a plaintiled roof with an internal chimney made of red brick. The windows are small-pane casements from the 19th and 20th centuries, and there is a mid-19th century four-panelled entrance door with a broad moulded architrave on the garden side.

The remaining section of medieval work is a parlour block of unusually high quality. The internal framing is fully exposed and includes moulded components of high quality. At the west corners, there are two angle-posts that support the jetties, each adorned with cresting and other carvings. The positions of now-blocked windows and doors feature pilasters with carved capitals. One blocked window, visible internally, has moulded mullions and arched heads for each light. Four doorways have arched heads, with one showcasing rosette-carving in the spandrels. In the chamber above, the ceiling joists are moulded, and the original fireplace with a cambered lintel remains, though it is blocked. A small stair wing on the north side likely dates from the original construction, with the main jettied upper floor structure and moulded bressummer exposed.
