Description
Hill Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 17th century, which was re-modelled and extended in the 18th century. It is constructed of colourwashed limestone rubble with some brick dressings and features timber framing, topped by an old plain-tile roof with brick stacks. The building has a lobby-entry L-plan and is two storeys high.
The main range has three windows, with a two-window section from the 17th century on the right that includes a central entrance and two-light windows, two of which have horizontal-sliding sashes. A dentil eaves course may date from the late 18th century, which is seen on the bay to the left that also has brick quoins and a 16-pane ground-floor sash window. The roof is hipped to the left and half hipped to the right, continuing over a rubble outshut. A clustered ridge stack is aligned with the entrance.
At the rear, there is a wing returning from the right, featuring a 4-light heavy-framed casement on the ground floor and timber framing at the first floor with two Gothick casements. The later 18th-century range at the angle has a hipped roof. Inside, there is a large central stack with back-to-back fireplaces. The roofs of the earlier range have clasped purlins and curved windbraces. Remnants of internal framing indicate that the front range was likely re-modelled with stone walls in the early 18th century.
