Description

Creighton House is a large house dating from the late 18th century. It has three storeys and features five windows. The building is constructed of brown brick with red brick relieving arches and has a parapet and a slate roof. The windows retain their original glazing bars. The entrance includes a doorway with columns, a pediment, a moulded tympanum, a semi-circular fanlight, and a six-panel fielded door. To the west of the main house is a two-storey extension with three windows, which was originally a malthouse or a similar commercial building, but is now part of the house. Creighton House and the adjacent No 73 form a group.

Creighton House sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 87% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 67% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 8 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 94% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 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.
