Hill Farmhouse With Attached Stable Block

Hill Farmhouse with an attached stable block is a farmhouse dating from the late 18th century, with modifications from the 19th century; the stable itself is from the 19th century. The building features lias rubble walls and slate roofs, although some areas have concrete tiles and pantiles on the stable. It is designed in an L-plan layout, with a shorter return wing that has a gabled staircase turret at the rear. The arrangement of windows in the main section suggests that the return wing may have been added later. The gabled stable is connected to the rear left corner of the farmhouse.

The farmhouse is two storeys tall and has three windows in the main range, all of which are wooden 2-light small-pane casements with a small central mullion, set under voussoired segmental heads. The windows in the first bay are smaller and feature leaded panes, indicating they are part of the original structure, while the other windows are deeper, with a part-glazed door located between the second and third bays. There is a small square ridge stack situated between the first and second bays, and a larger brick stack at the junction with the return wing. The left gable is coped and includes a deep one-storey lean-to extension with a pantile roof. The return wing has a concrete tile roof and features one deep 2-light casement window above a pair of matching French doors, with a small stack on the coped gable. The rear includes various casement windows and the gabled stair turret.

The interior has not been inspected, but it is reported to contain an 18th-century winder staircase and some 18th-century 2-panel doors. The spacious gabled stable at the rear has two square shuttered openings at eaves level above a central stable door with a segmental head; the door jambs and the main quoins of the building are made from slag block. The nearby Kelston brass mills supplied slag blocks for many buildings in the region.
