Description

The Master's Lodge is an early 18th century brick house, built in 1721, located on Church Street. It has two storeys and attics, topped with a double Welsh slate roof featuring three gabled dormers. There are stacks at the gable ends and a wooden eaves cornice. The building has five windows, which are hung sashes with glazing bars and wooden frames. A charming later addition is a small semi-circular porch that projects on slender columns, leading to a door with six panels and two glass sections. To the left, there is a modern two-storey extension with four windows that match the style of the original building. The Master's Lodge is part of a group that includes Gamlyn's Almshouses, Nos 3 to 8 in succession, the former stables to No 3, and a garden wall to the south of No 4.

Local climate

The Masters Lodge 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 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 86% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 66% 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.
