Description
Hitcham House is a large house built in 1867 for George Hanbury, designed by T Roger Smith. It is constructed of dark red brick with stone dressings, and is in the Gothic Revival style, featuring a tourelle and bay windows. The house is three storeys high and has a tile roof. A single-storeyed room was added to the south end in 1914. Originally named Blythwood, a date plaque on the south-east front confirms the construction date of 1867.
