Building record 1465400000 - Hill House and Old Hill House - Framewood

The present Hill House and Old Hill House are on the site of a house called Framewood, which is shown on the 1846 parish map with outbuildings to the north ranged around a yard with a pond. This appears to be a farmstead. Map evidence suggests that at least one open cart or cattle shed survives at Eight Acres Farm. Hill House was at one time the home of the Stoke Poges curate, Revd. Easson, and was referred to as Framewood Farm in one directory. The name must have been changed to Hill House after Framewood Manor was built and the 1911 directory shows a retired colonel, Sir William Bissett, living at Hill House. It is an attractive brick building of mixed red and yellow brick with a slate roof, and can only be glimpsed from the road.This is a local building of note within the Conservation area of Stoke Poges West End.
