Description

Stid Fold Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse constructed of watershot stone with a stone slate roof and a brick stack. The building has two storeys and features a two-unit plan, along with a single-storey porch. Stone quoins are present on both the house and the porch. The large porch has an off-centre doorway and appears to have been added later. There are flat-faced mullion windows with two lights on either side of the porch, and a continuous "weaver's window" on the first floor, although several lights in this window have been blocked. The farmhouse also has gable ridge stacks.

Local climate

Stid Fold Farmhouse sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,170 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 90% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 85% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 58 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 97% of listed buildings. Of these, 35 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.
