Description

Brookside is a cottage that likely dates from the 18th century, with later extensions added in the 20th century. It features a timber-frame construction and a plain tiled roof, with a brick end stack to the south that has a detached shaft. The building is arranged in three bays, oriented roughly north to south, and consists of one storey plus an attic.

On the west elevation, there is a regular arrangement of late 20th-century windows, three flat-top dormers, and an entrance located in a late 20th-century rendered single-storey extension. The timber frame consists of two panels high from the cill to the wall-plate. Inside, the cottage has collar trusses with interrupted tie-beams. The building was thatched until around 1960.

Brookside receives an average of 780 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 62% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 65% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 44 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 86% of listed buildings. Of these, 21 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.
