Description
Tillworth House is a large detached house dating from around 1840, designed in the Jacobean style, and set within a landscaped garden. The building is constructed of rendered stone rubble and features a steeply pitched shaped tile roof. It has two storeys and an attic, with the north front comprising five bays. The left and right end bays are slightly advanced and topped with large shaped gables that include pierced stone finials and rectangular lancet windows. The left bay features a two-storey rectangular bay window with a five-light stone mullion window. The remaining windows are three and four-light stone mullions, each with hood moulds. At the centre of the first floor, there is a small pediment within a small shaped gable. Below this, the central doorway is flanked by squat tapered pilasters and topped with a heavy stone cornice.
Adjoining the west end of the house is a rustic wall made of flint rubble, which includes battlements and a blind or blocked pointed arch doorway and windows. This wall may be a rebuilding of an 18th-century Gothic house.
