Description

The Garth is a house that possibly dates back to the early 17th century. It is constructed of rubble sandstone and features a pantiled roof with two brick chimneys at either end. The building has two storeys and five bays. In the second bay, there is a renewed glazed door set in a chamfered stone surround with large block jambs and a flattened Tudor-arched head. The fifth bay is blind. The sash windows, which have late 19th-century glazing and broad boxes, are set in some wider openings. The stone lintels are roughly dressed, and the sills are made of concrete. The interior has not been inspected.

Local climate

The Garth receives an average of 770 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 63% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 80% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 22 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 77% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 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.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
