Description

Hill Crest is a house from the mid-19th century, featuring a rendered exterior and a Welsh slate roof. It stands two storeys tall and has three windows. The outer windows are sashes with glazing bars set in full-height projecting square bays. Above the central door, there are three grouped sashes without glazing bars. A gablet with a fleur-de-lis finial above this window contains a clock. The eaves gutter is supported by wooden brackets, and there are two rendered chimneys at either end of the building.

It experiences an average of 27 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 71% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
