Description
7 Cecily Hill is a house located in Cirencester, dating from the early to mid-18th century, with later alterations and additions from the late 18th and 19th centuries. The building features a combination of stucco and limestone ashlar, with limestone rubble and brick on the sides and rear, topped by a stone slate hipped roof. There is a rendered stack at the right end and two stacks on the rear wings.
The front of the house has two different window arrangements within a facade of uniform height under the same roof. On the left side, there is a three-storey, four-window arrangement typical of the early to mid-18th century, featuring four 6/6-pane sash windows set in moulded eared stone architraves with keystones, and four 3/3-pane sashes in plain reveals above. The ground floor mirrors the first floor with three similar windows, and includes a Doric portico with a six-panel door and a single-pane overlight in a panelled reveal. On the right side, there is a two-storey, two-window arrangement from the late 18th century, with two 6/6-pane sashes in plain reveals on both the ground and first floors. The left side has a shallow plinth, while the right features a plat band over the ground floor and a cill band at the first floor. The eaves cornice is moulded with timber modillions, and there is a weather vane, likely from the 19th century, on the ridge of the roof at the right end.
Inside, the house boasts an early to mid-18th century open well staircase, possibly re-set, with two turned balusters per tread. There is also an early to mid-18th century panelled room with a dentil cornice and a chimneypiece featuring a broken pediment on the ground floor to the left. The ground floor to the right contains large late 18th-century rooms with reeded marble chimneypieces, as well as a chimneypiece in the rear wing.
