West Hill

West Hill is an early to mid 19th century building located on Silver Street. It is three storeys high with three window bays and is finished in stucco. The building features an eaves cornice and pilasters with incised panelling. The second floor has sash windows with intact glazing bars, while the first and ground floors have French casements. An iron verandah spans the first and ground floors, complete with a balcony and canopy above the first floor. To the south, there is a two-storey, three-bay wing that has a bracket eaves cornice and a slate hipped roof. This wing also features sash windows with glazing bars intact, and a French casement in the centre of the ground floor, flanked by sash windows that have rectangular lights with curved tracery above. The building may have been constructed by Joseph Hayward. West Hill is part of a group that includes The Little Place, the north-east boundary wall of Rosehill, the garden wall of Burley, the old Vicarage, the former stable block and garden wall to Burley and the Old Vicarage, the Roman Catholic Church of St Michael and St George, and the Dorset Hotel on Pound Road.
