Hillhead

Hillhead is a house dating to approximately the early 19th century, with later 19th-century additions and relatively few more recent alterations. It is constructed of stone rubble with brick and stone dressings, and has a hipped slurried slate roof with ridge tiles and side brick shafts. The building follows a double-depth plan, with a central entrance and principal rooms to the front left and right, and additional rear service rooms. A one-room plan addition was built in the later 19th century on the left side, featuring a stack to its left. The two-storey front presents a symmetrical façade of three windows. All windows are 19th-century 16-pane sashes, each with a flat brick arch and keystone. A centrally placed panelled and glazed door is set within a 19th-century trellis porch. The left-side addition has a lean-to roof and incorporates a 2-light 6-pane casement window at both ground and first floor levels, both with cambered brick arches and brick jambs. The right end of the building is blind. The interior remains uninspected.
