He made two further first-class appearances in that year against Surrey and Gloucestershire, while the following year he made a single first-class appearance against Yorkshire in the County Championship at Park Avenue, Bradford.[1] Five years later he made a final first-class appearance for Warwickshire against London County.[1] In five first-class matches, Hill scored 41 runs at an average of 6.83, with a high score of 13.[2] With the ball, he took 5 wickets at a bowling average of 49.60, with best figures of 3/15.[3]
