Description

Court Hill House is an early 17th-century court house that has been altered over time. It is constructed of rubble with a pantile roof, the lower three courses being slate, and rubble end stacks. The house is arranged over three irregular storeys and has three bays. The central bay features large 20th-century glazed casements and 16-pane sash windows, all set beneath brick heads and relieving arches. A 20th-century gabled porch provides shelter for the panelled and glazed front door.

Inside, a dog-leg staircase exhibits turned balusters. 18th-century panelled doors are fitted within ovolo moulded surrounds, with run-out stops on the first floor. The ground floor left room has double ogee moulded beams, also with converging stops. The first floor left room features moulded beams with enriched soffits, alongside an enriched frieze incorporating shield panels supported by gryphons. A plaster overmantel is present, with an enriched frieze and pilasters, a central panel with a cartouche and swags. The first floor right room contains a studded plank door with S-hinges, a wall cupboard with 17th-century panelling, and a moulded mantelshelf. Finally, the top floor right room has a moulded mantelshelf and a cambered lintel above the fireplace.
