Description

The Old Windmill is a former public house that has been converted into a house. It was built in the early 19th century and has undergone minor alterations in the 20th century. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and features a concrete tiled roof with brick coped gables, as well as two gable stacks and a single ridge stack.

It is two storeys high with a three-bay front. The entrance is an off-centre planked door with a margin light. To the left of the door is a single glazing bar sash window, and to the right, there is a pair of glazing bar sash windows. On the first floor, there are three glazing bar sash windows, and all openings have brick segmental heads. At the rear, there is a catslide roof.

Local climate

The Old Windmill 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.
