Elm View was constructed in 2004 from the current owners' personal design and built with brick, rendered and clad elevations under a tiled roof.

The small picturesque village of Hilton provides many local facilities including a post office/general store, village hall, 2 churches and a public house. The large village green, surrounded by a mix of impressive modern and period buildings, has a 55ft diameter turf maze/labyrinth, cut by William Sparrow in 1660 and is one of only 8 remaining in the country.
