Description

Rockfold is a late 18th-century house located on Bell Hill, Stapleton, Bristol. It is constructed of stucco with limestone dressings, and has a pantiled hip roof with brick ridge stacks. The house follows a double-depth plan. It is two storeys high and features a single bay. The right-hand side has a door with a flat canopy supported by curved brackets. A ground-floor canted bay window has a 3-light arrangement with 6/6 sash windows, matching a central first-floor window. A hipped first-floor room projects on the left return, overhanging the path. The interior has not been inspected. Rockfold is attached to Hillcrest.
