Description

Hill Cottage is an 18th-century cottage that has been restored. It is constructed of cob and has a thatched roof. The building is one storey with an attic and features two gables above three windows. The roof is half-hipped, and there is an exposed frame in the tile gable, along with a catslide at the rear. The eaves are raised above the upper windows. The walls are rendered, and the windows are casements. The entrance has a boarded door set in a plain frame, topped with a thatched canopy supported by posts.
