Description

Spring Hill is a house dating from the 16th century or earlier, with subsequent alterations and additions. It is timber framed and plastered, with red plain tiled roofs. A red brick chimney stack, constructed as a concertina shaft, rises from the centre, left of the building and is two storeys high. The property is said to have jettied upper floors. A two-bay gabled range is located to the left, and a full-width, 20th-century lean-to porch extends from it, featuring a 20th-century door and multi-light window. There are four first-floor windows, one of which is original with mullions. A 20th-century door is positioned to the left of the porch. A plaster date of 1577 is visible above a window. A wing was added in 1937. It is believed there is an original door and two original windows present. An internal inspection was not carried out during the most recent survey.

It experiences an average of 20 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 78% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 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.
