Description

The Larches is an early 19th-century building located on the west side of Sevenoaks Road in Green Street Green. This two-storey structure features three windows and is finished in stucco. It has a cornice and a parapet, topped by a hipped slate roof. The windows are set within moulded architrave surrounds and retain their original jalousies and glazing bars. The first-floor windows are further enhanced with cornices and pediments. A small porch with thin, fluted Greek Doric columns adds to the building's charm, while the ends of the house are curved.

The Larches receives an average of 750 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 70% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 71% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 37 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 67% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.
