Description

Vallance Cottage is an early 19th-century cottage located on the south side of Ickleton Grange Road. It is constructed from flint with red brick dressings and features a plain tiled roof with a central ridge stack. The cottage is two storeys high and has a four-panelled door framed by a moulded wooden architrave. There are two horizontal sliding sash windows on the ground floor and two on the first floor, three of which have small panes set within segmental brick arches.

Vallance Cottage sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 90% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 74% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 55% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
