Description
Battle Hill is a house dated 1673 with alterations from the 1920s. It is constructed of limewashed rubble with painted stone dressings and a stone slate roof. The building has a three-room plan and stands two storeys high with three bays. To the left of center, there is a projecting two-storey gabled entrance porch featuring a moulded surround and a decorated lintel that is inscribed with "I L" and has a hoodmould. The porch contains a late 17th-century studded plank door.
In the gable, there is a former two-light chamfered window with a missing mullion and casements. A small chamfered window is located in the right-hand return. To the left, there is a curved stair turret with a small single-light chamfered stair window, and three ground floor windows: a two-light chamfered mullioned window with fixed lights on the left, a single-light chamfered fire window to the right of the porch, and a 1920s three-light flat-faced mullioned window. The upper floor features two 1920s windows with casements. The building has gable-end and right-of-centre ridge stacks.
Inside, the fireplace in the right-hand room has a chamfered surround and a large basket-arched lintel. Most rooms have 17th-century studded plank doors. In the attic, there are two large stone corbels, likely intended to support a timber fire hood that is no longer present.
