3 The Hill, Thornhill

This is a two-storey, three-bay house, built around 1770, with a two-bay addition to the east. The house, now converted into two separate dwellings in 2022, is constructed from rubble with raised and painted margins, a pitched slate roof, rendered chimneystacks, and scrolled skewputs. The building has a rectangular plan. The main north elevation is symmetrically arranged around a central door opening, which features a lugged architrave and projecting cornice.

A two-bay block to the east (now No. 1) was added in the late 18th or early 19th century. It is constructed with similar materials and detailing to the original house, and has a piended gable. There is evidence that a window on the left side was formerly a doorway. An internal door opening is located on the east elevation, featuring a stop-and-start surround and raised margins.

The exterior of both properties was formerly stuccoed with painted margins. A single-storey addition to the rear (south) elevation of No. 3 was added in the late 20th century. The statutory address was changed from 'Mrs. Thomson, Hillview, Thornhill' to '1-3 The Hill, Thornhill', and the listed building record was updated in 2022. Ordnance Survey maps from 1862-1863, 1898, and 1970-1971 provide further historical reference.
