Description
Ash Hill House is a detached house dating from the 17th century, with a front added in the late 18th century. The building features a timber-framed rear range and a front constructed of header and English bond brick, topped with a tiled half-hipped roof and gable-end brick stacks. The two-storey, three-window front from the 18th century includes a central door with six fielded panels, composite pilasters, a flat wooden hood supported by brackets, and a fanlight. Flanking the door are Venetian windows with 12-pane sashes and rubbed brick arches. The first floor has three 4-pane sash windows with flat arches and a plain plaster pediment above the eaves.
On the right side, there are French windows, a large external stack with tiled offsets, and three casements on the first floor and two on the second floor. The left side features a large external stack for the front range, while the rear range displays exposed square-panelled timber-framing, with ornamental cast-iron casements on the ground floor and leaded casements on the first and second floors. The rear includes a projecting wing on the left with a leaded Venetian window and a half-glazed door, a hipped roof, and the main range has French windows and 2-light casements, with the first floor being tile-hung over timber-framing.
Inside, the house has chamfered beams with ogee stops and an open fireplace with a chamfered lintel in the 17th-century rear. The front range features newel stairs with stick balusters, doors with six fielded panels, a classical fireplace with a dentilled cornice, and a fluted ceiling cornice.
