Description

These are two 17th-century cottages, likely originally built in the 17th century, located on School Street, Sidford. They are cob buildings with gable-end slate roofs, replacing what was formerly thatch. Number 1 has an external stone chimney with stepped offsets and a vertical break running down the stack. Both cottages feature 2- and 3-light 19th-century casement windows. They have plain cottage doors. Numbers 1 and 2 are part of a group that includes Numbers 3 to 12 (consec), the British Legion Hall, and Crossways Cottage.

Local climate

1 and 2, School Street receives an average of 780 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 61% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 73% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 19 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 80% of listed buildings. Of these, 6 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.
