ASHOVER
SK3563 HILLSIDE
1264-0/11/55 (North side)
Hillside Cottage
GV II
House. Mid and late C18. Roughly squared and coursed sandstone
rubble with slate roof. The right-hand gable of the main
3-storey house is coped with an ashlar chimney cap. Near the
centre of the ridge there is a second chimney, with a third
chimney at the left belonging to Over Asher (qv) Comprises a
main house of 3 storeys and 2 bays, and a lower wing to the
right of 2 storeys and 2 bays. Quoins and a change in
stonework suggest that the right-hand bay of the main house is
of the same build as the wing, but that its third storey and
the left-hand bay are an addition. Except for the left-hand
window on the ground floor (which is a C20 bow) the windows of
the main house are of 2 lights with stone surrounds and
flat-faced mullions. They have a mixture of sashes without
glazing bars and timber casements. The doorway, between bays,
has a stone surround (partly quoined). The right-hand wing has
2 windows of 2 lights on the 1st floor. At the left on the
ground floor is a door surround similar to that of the main
house, with a window with plain reveals to its right. At the
right are timber garage doors.
INTERIOR: not fully inspected. The middle room appears to have
a blocked stone fireplace with jowelled jambs.
