Description

The Red Cottage is a 17th-century timber-framed cottage. In the mid-19th century, it was completely covered with red brick. The roof is steeply pitched and tiled, with gabled ends. The cottage is one storey high with an attic, featuring a single gabled dormer window. There are two windows with two lights each, featuring segmental brick heads, and a simple plank front door. 19th-century brick chimney stacks are also present.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 65% 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.
