Description
Hill Farm House is a farmhouse dating from the 15th and 16th centuries, constructed with a timber frame and stone slate roofs. It stands one and a half to two storeys tall and consists of two main sections, both featuring exposed framing. The left section is a two-storey range, likely from the 16th century, while the right section is a one and a half storey range from the 15th century, which includes a 17th-century gable on the left and a 20th-century addition on the right.
The left section has a two-window range of casement windows and a door to the right set in a gabled stone slate porch. It displays exposed timbers, including a heavy curved tension brace on the first floor, while the left side has mostly been rebuilt in rubble stone. There is also a rendered lean-to on the end wall with a pantiled roof. The right section features a timber-framed gable on the left above a roughcast ground floor with a triple casement window, and rubble stone on the right side. A ridge stack is present, and the roughcast section to the right has been rebuilt in the 20th century, with a gabled wing at the back.
At the rear, the two-storey section reveals exposed timbering with four large tension braces and a glazed lean-to that runs the full length of the building. Inside, there are two full cruck trusses from the former open hall, with some blackened rafters. A dormer gable was likely added when the hall was floored, and the interior features heavy chamfered spine beams.
