Description

Round Hill Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1767, likely designed by John Carr for the Earl of Holderness. The building features rendered rubblestone with ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof. It is two storeys high and has three bays, with a single-storey 20th-century extension to the right that is of no special interest. The central bay projects forward and is topped with a pediment. On the right side of the central bay, there is a four-panel door with an overlight set in a stone architrave with a cornice. The central bay also has a full-height round-arched recess and a central tripartite sash window with glazing bars. To the left of the central bay, there is a 4-pane sash window, and to the right, a 20th-century French window in a moulded architrave.

On the first floor, there is an ashlar band, with a central unequally hung 12-pane sash window that has a segmental head. To the left, there is a 12-pane side-sliding sash window, and to the right, another unequally hung 12-pane sash window, similar to the one on the right return of the central bay. The building features an eaves band, a moulded central pediment, a hipped roof, and a central ridge stack.
