Description

Little Criol is a two-story timber-framed building, likely dating from the late medieval period and originally a hall-house. The upper floor retains exposed diagonal braces with plaster infilling. The ground floor has been rebuilt in brick, which is now painted. The roof is hipped and tiled, featuring a 17th-century brick chimney stack with smoke louvres. There are three casement windows.

Local climate

Little Criol sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 52% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
