Description

Hill Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century. Above the doorway, there is a carved board dated 1697 featuring '0' over 'DA' in the center. The building is timber framed and plastered, with a pantiled roof. It has two storeys and an attic, following a three-cell plan. The windows are mid-20th century casements, and there is a lobby entrance with a mid-20th century four-panel door, where the upper panels are glazed. An internal stack and an external stack are located on the left-hand side. The farmhouse was under renovation at the time of the survey.
