A splendid five bedroom modern country house built in the classic Georgian style, set within the heart of this period village.
A splendid modern country house built in the classic Georgian style, set within the heart of this period village. Hill House was constructed in the 1990s by the well- known builders, John Wakefield, who are renowned for their detail and high quality workmanship.
