Description

The Peacock is a public house built in the mid-18th century, with alterations from the 19th and 20th centuries. It features red brick in Flemish bond, with the ground floor colorwashed and a concrete tiled roof topped by two gable stacks. The building is two stories high and has a five-bay front arranged in a 2:1:2 pattern, with a band at the first floor level. The central entrance is a 20th-century door with a plain overlight, flanked by pairs of plain sash windows. The first floor has five similar windows. All openings are topped with segmental rubbed brick heads that include key blocks.

Local climate

The Peacock sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 83% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 68% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 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.
