Default Lemon Plant loosing leaves

Hi All

I have had a lemon plant for a year and it has been growing fine until we
have had this cold snap. I have it in the house close to a window on a
table and as of late it has been loosing leaves Now I must admit that
it is not exactly warm in the house but its the warmest place I can keep
it.

Any advice? I am hoping that once the weather warms up it will start to
regrow it leaves again...

I've had a dozen lemon seedlings 'growing' in the greenhouse over winter
(North West). It's not heated, they're not propagated (just growing out of a
seed tray) and the greenhouse is cetainly not frost free judging by the
amount of plants that have died in there over winter. I've also had one
growing inside the house. All of them have kept their leaves but that could
be down to their age. The cold doesn't seem to have had any affect on them.
I have very little gardening knowledge but could something else be causing
the loss of leaves?
