Description
Castlehill House is an earlier 19th century house built symmetrically with two storeys and three bays facing northwest. It is fronted by an earlier single-storey, U-shaped range. The house is white harled with margins and dressings of tooled ashlar. A corniced portico of Roman Doric columns masks the central door. The ground floor has deeply bowed, three-window bays, while the first floor has tripartite windows in the outer bays. A single, later first-floor oriel window is located in the northeast return gable. Multi-pane glazing is present throughout. A margined base course and a shallow parapet to the bowed bays form a continuous band course. Projecting, margined flues rise the full height of the house, terminating in corniced wallhead stacks. The roof is of shallow piended slate with projecting eaves.
The rear range consists of a single-storey, three-bay cottage centrally located, flanked at right angles by further single-storey cottages. These have been much altered with the addition of later dormers and porches. End stacks are visible on the centre gabled cottage, and a centre ridge stack is on the outer wings, which have piended slate roofs.
