Description
Raydon Hill House is a farmhouse, now a house, comprising two buildings set at right angles. The original core of the house dates back to the 17th century, facing the lane, with a later addition from the early 18th century on the south side; a tie beam in the attic is dated 1721.
The 17th-century range is built of squared, coursed ironstone, with a steeply pitched slate roof, a stone and brick ridge stack, and end stack. It has a three-unit plan and a three-window front. The rear entrance is the primary access point. Ground-floor windows consist of two three-light metal casements in wooden frames, with wrought-iron fasteners. A single similar window is located on the first floor. All windows have wooden lintels. The interior features stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops, chamfered joists, and a stone fireplace with a wooden bressumer.
The early 18th-century range is composed of two units, with two storeys and an attic, and a three-window front. It is constructed of ironstone ashlar, with a steeply pitched slate roof, stone coped gables, moulded kneelers, and brick end stacks on stone bases. A panelled door is set within a moulded wooden frame, sheltered by a gabled hood. The entrance is flanked by 20th-century imitation mullioned and transomed windows. The first floor has three partly repaired wood-mullioned and transomed windows, each with a stone flat arch. There are two gabled roof dormers. The interior includes an 18th-century dado and a niched cupboard. A closed-well staircase is housed in a gabled two-storey projection on the north (rear) side, alongside a later plain oak staircase.
