Description

The Croft is a house mostly built in 1811. It features red brick construction with a rendered stone rear wall and a renewed pantile roof, which has ridge stacks at the left end and center right. The building is two stories tall and has four 8/8 sash windows, with three located on the ground floor. These windows have cambered lintels. The entrance is a 20th-century wooden doorcase with a pediment and an overlight, and there is a tablet above the door that is dated 1811.

The Croft sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 740 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 76% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 79% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 36 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 63% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.
