Description

Hill House is a house built in the mid-18th century. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and features a plain tile roof. The building has two storeys, with a rendered eaves band and a plain brick-coped parapet. The roof is hipped, and there are projecting end stacks. The front of the house has a regular arrangement of three windows, which are recessed glazing-bar sashes with gauged brick voussoirs. To the left, there is a recessed semi-circular-headed panelled door with a plain fanlight, also set within an architrave with gauged brick voussoirs. At the back, there is a slightly earlier rear range.

Hill House sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 730 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 79% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 78% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 29 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 68% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 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.
