Hicksmill House and Adjoining Cottage and Outbuilding

Hicksmill House is a building of probable 17th-century origins, with later additions and alterations made in the 18th and early 19th centuries. It consists of the main house, an adjoining cottage, and an outbuilding. The house is constructed of stone rubble with a slate roof, featuring stone rubble end stacks. A lower-pitched hipped roof covers the outbuilding on the left, and a gable end with a stone rubble stack defines the adjoining cottage on the right.

The original house likely had a two-room and cross or through-passage plan, with end stacks to heat the rooms. An 18th-century extension added a one-room plan cottage on the higher right-hand side. In the early 19th century, a barn of a rectangular plan was added to the lower left-hand side; part of its right-hand side is now incorporated into the main house, forming a single-room range with a separate entrance.

The main house presents an almost symmetrical three-window facade with a central entrance within a 19th-century slate porch and a probably 20th-century glazed door. The ground floor has probably 20th-century three-light and two-light casement windows with dressed stone arches. The first floor features similar 20th-century three-light and two-light casements with chamfered timber lintels. A row of pigeon holes is located in the lower left-hand gable end. Attached to the right is a two-storey range with a plank door and 20th-century two-light casements on both floors. Adjacent to this, on the lower left-hand end, is a two-storey barn; the right-hand side is now part of the main house. Ground floor openings have dressed stone arches, including a wide door flanked by a shippon door to the left and a window to the right. A plank door is positioned above the wide ground floor opening. A 20th-century door, with a 20th-century two-light casement window to the left, is situated on the far right, adjoining the house.

The interior of the building is not accessible.
