Copper Hill House

Copper Hill House is a house, likely dating from the mid to later 19th century. It is constructed of roughly squared killas rubble, mostly rendered and painted white, with granite dressings, a scantle slate roof, and chimneys of yellow brick. The building is arranged in an L-shape, with a main range aligned east-west and a wing extending northwards.

The north facade, which faces the garden, is symmetrical with three bays and is unrendered. It features a plinth, rock-faced quoins, three 4-pane sash windows on each floor, and a blind window centrally above. The north facade has a hipped roof with projecting eaves and side-wall chimneys. The ground floor windows and those above have rock-faced, quoined surrounds and lintels. A modern flat-roofed porch covers the entrance located in the south-east corner. The rear wall has a single window on the first floor, while the north wing has one ground-floor and two first-floor windows, all with 4-pane sashes. A large round-headed stairwindow with intersecting glazing bars is present in the end wall of the wing, located above a flat-roofed extension (which is not of special interest). The west side wall, with three bays, has a doorway in the centre and 4-pane sash windows on both floors; the first-floor window to the left is segmental-headed. The interior remains uninspected. The house is thought to be linked to the nearby Wheal Buller copper mine, with remains of the mine located within approximately 200 metres to the north and west.
