1 And 2, Hillside

Nos 1 and 2 Hillside is a farmhouse that has been converted into two cottages. It likely dates from the early 16th century, with a ceiling added in the late 16th century and an outshot extension. The building is roughcast over random rubble and cob, topped with a thatched roof that is hipped to the left. There are roughcast stacks on the right gable end and a large lateral stack next to the porch, which is positioned between the first and second bays on the left, marking the end of the original structure.

The layout consists of an open hall house that has been divided into three cells with a cross passage. The service end has been rebuilt and extended by one bay on the left, and a two-storey porch has been added. The building stands two storeys high and features a three-one-one bay arrangement. Most of the windows are 20th-century casements, except for two leaded iron casements to the left of the full-height hipped roof porch. A gabled dormer has been inserted in the full-height projection to the right of the stack. There is a ground floor window to the left of a flat-roofed 20th-century porch addition, and two windows to the right under semicircular relieving arches. A four-light window is located in the projection to the right of the stack, with a three-light window beyond it.

The porch has a square-headed opening that is accessed by a short flight of steps, and there are small lancet openings on the returns. The interior has not been seen but is said to contain a circular stair turret that opens out of a room to the left of the cross passage in the rear corner. There is a plank and muntin screen to the right of the cross passage, and a small room at the rear of the hall that has a step and stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops, likely used as a dairy. Beyond this is a later outshut, and the remains of a two-bay jointed cruck truss roof with two collar beam trusses can be found at the lower end.
