Description

This is an early 19th-century pair of cottages located in Cranbrook. They are timber-framed and have been clad with weatherboards, with v-joints designed to mimic the appearance of channelled stucco or stone. The roof is slate, with a half-hip design, and central chimney stacks. The cottages have two storeys and a two-window front, featuring glazing bar sash windows. Each ground-floor window has a boarded door to its left. The buildings are included on the heritage register for their group value.

1 and 2, The Tanyard receives an average of 740 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 75% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 55% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 27 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
