Smith Hill House

Detached three-bay two-storey country house, later used as rectory, built c.1790, with return to rear. Now in use as private dwelling. Hipped slate roof with limestone chimneystacks. Roughcast-rendered walls. Replacement uPVC windows and tooled limestone sills. Round-headed window opening to first floor above doorway. Recent glazed porch to front elevation. Round-headed doorway with tooled stone surround comprising fluted pilasters and keystone containing spoked fanlight and timber panelled door flanked by two sidelights (now blocked up). Cast-iron entrance gate flanked by rendered piers and sweeping walls. Cut-stone piers to east of house gives access to modernized outbuildings to rear yard.

Its simple form is an appealing feature of Smith Hill. The symmetrical façade is adorned by the tooled stone door surround, mirrored on the first floor by the round-headed window opening.
