Description

Denhirst is a handed pair of houses dating from the late 18th century. They are constructed of coursed rubble with quoins and feature a stone slate roof. The gable copings are supported by moulded kneelers, and there is a later central stack. Each house has a doorway on the left and right, both with very deep lintels and slightly arched tops. There is one 2-light window on each floor of both dwellings, and all the windows appear to have been enlarged vertically.

Local climate

Denhirst sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 990 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 79% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 72% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 48 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 90% of listed buildings. Of these, 28 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.
