Description

Hopping Hill is a row of early industrial housing built by Strutts between 1792 and 1797. The cottages are made of coursed stone and are terraced, stepping up the hillside. They feature slate roofs and brick chimneys. Nos 1 to 6 are two storeys tall and have small gabled attic dormers, while the rest are three storeys. Each cottage has one window; the ground floors have sash windows, while the upper floors mainly feature casements, including a unique nine-paned iron window designed and forged by Strutt on the top floor, where four panes form a casement. The first-floor door and window have voussoirs. Some modern glazing has been added, but it generally fits within the original openings. The cottages are enclosed by low coped street boundary walls, with steps leading to the front doors.

1-28 Hopping Hill receives an average of 780 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 60% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 67% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 38 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 74% of listed buildings. Of these, 19 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.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
