Description
Berry Hill House is a Grade II* listed building constructed of square rubble stone with some banding and roughcast at the rear. It features hipped slate roofs and stone ridge stacks, forming an L-plan layout. The main front has a two-storey, three-window arrangement of 12-pane sashes with slate sills and cut stone voussoirs. The central door is set in a tall square-headed doorcase, featuring a flush-panelled six-panel door and a fanlight with radiating bars, flanked by reeded timber pilasters. There is a 20th-century hipped roughcast porch, and paired brackets support the eaves. The eastern front mirrors the three-window range and has two ridge stacks. The western end includes a tall pointed stair light with a glazing bar sash and a traceried head. The rear court is roughcast, with a blank northern wall facing the main house and a two-window range on the west-facing return.
The house retains its unaltered early 19th-century interiors, featuring plaster cornices, six-panel doors, window shutters, and complete fireplaces. The entrance hall leads through to a spine hall with plaster arches. The southeast room has a black slate fireplace and an arched recess on the west wall with horizontally fluted pilasters. The southwest room features a white marble fireplace and an acanthus cornice with a grape scroll ceiling border. A small room on the east side includes dado panelling and a cast-iron Regency-style grate. At the western end, there is a dog-leg stair with stick balusters, a moulded rail, and scroll brackets at the tread ends, along with a ceiling adorned with a plaster cornice and rose. The upper spine corridor has a ceiling with panels between elliptical arches on console brackets, along with additional plaster cornices. A vaulted cellar is located beneath the western side of the house.
