Description
Upper Hill Farmhouse is a house dating from the 17th century, featuring a timber frame. It has been reclad in the early 19th century and has a substantial extension. The older section has brick walls in Flemish Garden Wall bond, with some cambered openings. The later unit is constructed of brick with flush red quoins, cambered arches with flat extrados, and blue header panels between and at each side of the windows, with Flemish bond in the middle and lower sections, also featuring blue headers. The roof is covered with 20th-century interlocking tiles, hipped over the older part and with a catslide at the rear, while the later part has a plain taller roof. The building has an L-shaped low block with a tall extension on the north side. The north-west front is two storeys high, with one storey and an attic, and features 2.2 windows. The windows are sashes in exposed frames, with casements in the older part, which also includes gabled dormers. There is a late 19th-century brick porch with a gabled roof.
