Description

No. 39, Timbletoo, is a house dating from the 17th century. It is timber framed with colourwashed plaster infill, and has clay tile roofs, with some 20th-century tile replacements. The house is arranged in a T-shape. It is two storeys high. The windows are casements, most with glazing bars. The south elevation shows the main block and the right-hand gable each with one casement window on each floor. A lower block to the left has one ground-floor casement. A 20th-century lean-to porch is situated at the junction between the main block and the lower left block, and continues the roof slope of the lower block. A red brick ridge stack with a moulded cornice is at the left-hand end of the main block. To the north, a single-storey addition projects from the lower block, and there is a slated lean-to within the angle of the main block.

Timbletoo sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 87% 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 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 53% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
