Description
Hitcham Grange on Hill Farm Road has been converted into flats. Largely obscured from view by walls and trees but, similar in style to Hill House, its white walls can be glimpsed from the road as well as the village car park. It is still set in large grounds and the boundary wall appears to be suffering from lack of maintenance, a common consequence of multiple occupation A disused icehouse remains in the grounds. Other buildings in the grounds have been converted to houses which contribute character, not reflected in the modern garages. Hill Farm is also hidden from view above the level of Hill Farm Road and behind uncharacteristic timber fencing and gates. The farmhouse is modern although some Victorian barns and stables survive. This is a significant building/building of note within the conservation area (B1).
