Description
Hill House is a pair of mid to late 19th century houses constructed of yellow brick with a slate roof. They feature a symmetrical design and stand three storeys high, with each house having one bay and a blank space between them on the first floor. The side bays are recessed and two storeys tall, each with one window. There is a further adjoining two-storey section with two bays, and the first floor of the central section has windows consisting of three arched lights, with a string course at the impost height. The ground floor includes a square bay with a balustraded parapet. The entrance to No 2 is a stuccoed porch with a slate roof, supported by paired Doric pillars, while the rest of the house is also stuccoed. No 1 does not have a porch, and its side bays are made of brick. The windows in both houses are mainly sash windows, some of which have glazing bars.
Nos 1 to 6 form an important group at the top of the hill and mark the entrance into Lymington. This group is associated with the listed building on Stanford Hill and on Priestland Place.
