Description

Hill House is a pair of estate houses built in the mid-19th century. The buildings are two storeys high with attics and constructed from red brick, featuring a dentil cornice. They have black glazed pantiles and decorated barge-boards on the gables. Each house has two internal chimney-stacks, with three square shafts arranged in a diamond pattern. There are three windows, which are casements with geometrical leaded panes, and each gable end has a slit window in the attic. The two end doors are accessed by flights of steps and have gabled roofs made of pantiles, supported on brackets. The houses have landscape value.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 62% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
