Description

Hill Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 16th century or early 17th century and was built in two main stages. It is timber-framed and plastered, featuring significant sections of 18th-century bolection-moulded plaster panels at the upper level. The ground floor walls were largely rebuilt in the 19th century using flint rubble with brick quoins, which are now painted. The roofs are covered with plain tiles and have two axial chimneys made of red brick, along with a gabled casement dormer. The building has two storeys and attics, with 19th and 20th-century small-pane casements and a boarded entrance door from the 19th century. The two main ranges of the farmhouse are connected end-to-end, with the westernmost range having a lower eavesline, suggesting it may be the older section. There is also a rear wing of two storeys that may date from the 17th century or earlier. The interior has not been examined.
