Quarry Hill

Quarry Hill is a large house, now divided into three separate residences, built in 1865 by the architects Field and Hilton. It is constructed of Reigate stone with Bath stone dressings and has a tiled roof with bands of plain and pointed tiles. The building is notable for its three tall, clustered, ribbed brick chimneystacks.

The architectural style is Gothic, with an asymmetrical design of two storeys and attics, originally presenting five windows. Number 52 was initially a billiard room, part of the original construction, but was given an additional storey in the 1960s. The left part of the main wing (Number 50) is set back, featuring a gabled dormer with a cambered sash window and two foliate gargoyles. A first-floor window is a three-light mullioned and transomed casement containing stained glass, introduced by the current owner. The ground floor window is a two-light design, alongside a matching doorcase with plain spandrels. Number 48 has a projecting gable with a stone finial to its left. The second floor features a cambered sash window with gargoyles, while the first floor has a four-light mullioned and transomed window, with a similar five-light window on the ground floor.

A recessed section of two bays follows to the right, with two two-light sashes on the first floor and a three-light mullioned and transomed window on the ground floor. A doorcase in the angle features gargoyles and a fanlight of three trefoils. The doors have six chamfered panels, with spandrels of roses on one side and shamrocks on the other. The end bay is projecting, with rosettes to the cornice and four cambered sashes on the first floor. Blank shields are positioned between the floors, accompanied by a four-light mullioned and transomed window on the ground floor. To the extreme right is a contemporary stone and glazed conservatory with cambered sides, divided by colonnettes with foliate capitals, and a wood and glass roof.

The interior of Number 52 includes a staircase with two turned balusters to each tread, along with panelling and a fireplace with eared architraves. The former billiard room, which forms part of Number 48, features panelling, a splayed windowseat, and an alcove with a chimneybreast. A contemporary flat-roofed extension has been added to the rear of Number 52, and a rear elevation displays two projecting wings along with a tall mullioned staircase window.
