Hill View Woodside

Hill View and Woodside is a cottage that has been enlarged into a pair of semi-detached dwellings. It dates from the 17th century and was altered in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of red sandstone random rubble, with some areas rendered, and features brick dressings and quoins. The roof has various shallow pitches and different eaves levels, covered with double Roman tiles, and some sections have triple ridge tiles on Hill View. The eaves are overhanging with sprockets, and there are two lateral stacks with circular chimneys.

The plan of the building is unclear, lying in a north-east to south-west orientation, and it may consist of a two-cell structure extended to the north-east. It has one and a half storeys and two bays, with the left bay lit only on the ground floor. There is a 20th-century casement dormer on the left, and a two-light casement window below the eaves to the left of the lateral stack. A three-light dormer rises from the eaves level between the lateral stacks. On the ground floor, there is a four-light casement window on the left beneath a cement lintel, and a window to the left of a semicircular projection that rises to eaves level, which has a double Roman tiled lean-to roof, possibly serving as a stair turret. A plank door is located to the left of the stack, with a three-light casement window to the left of laterally boarded double doors that have a Tudor arch head. There is a pentice porch abutting the lateral stack on the right, and a similar double Roman tiled pentice roof covers the window on the right.

The differing roof levels and lateral projections on the facade create a picturesque composition, although the dating of the interior remains uncertain without an internal inspection.
