Description

Ravenscourt is likely from the 15th century, although it has been largely refaced with cement. The house is two storeys high with three windows. It has a tiled roof and casement windows. The ground floor features three small bays, and the doorway has pilasters and a flat hood supported on brackets, with a six-panel door.

Ravenscourt is part of a group of listed buildings in Brent Hill. It also forms a group with Ravenscourt Cottage and Davington Priory, along with the walls, Postern Gate, the Church of St Mary Magdalene, Priory Road, and Rose Cottage on Davington Hill.

It experiences an average of 20 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 79% 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.
