Description
Murhill House is a house built around 1840 to 1850, which is a remodelling of early 19th century quarry cottages. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features fishscale tiled roofs with coped gables. The house has moulded Tudor-style ashlar stacks and is 1½ storeys tall, designed in a T-plan.
The west front has three windows and a central half-glazed door set in an ashlar porch that has a flat top and a hoodmould. On either side of the door are margin-glazed French windows, each with a matching heavy hoodmould. The first floor contains three small-paned two-light mullion windows, which have a heavy stone shelf supported by corbels between them. Above each window, there is an ashlar raised coped gable featuring a quatrefoil plaque.
The south end of the house has similar windows on each floor, along with a blank loop on either side of the upper window. The range to the right shows blocked doors from the former cottages. There are three more similar ground floor French windows with hoodmoulds and three two-light windows above, but only the centre window has a gable above it. There is also a parallel range to the north.
