Description

Potter House is a house that dates from the 18th century or earlier, with some later alterations. It has a timber frame and is covered in pargetting. The roof is made of red plain tiles, and there are red brick chimney stacks on the left and external right sides. The house has two storeys and features a three-window range with small paned vertically sliding sashes. To the right of the centre, there is a two-panelled four-light door, which is flanked by reeded pilasters, topped with a moulded frieze and a moulded open pediment.

Potter House sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 95% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 73% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 66% 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.
