Description

Old Budna Farmhouse is a house dating from around 1600, with alterations made in the 19th century. It features a timber-framed construction with brick infill, and some areas have been rebuilt in brick. The exterior is partly covered with roughcast render, and it has a thatched roof. The building has a T-plan and stands two storeys tall.

On the east elevation, the ground floor includes three sash windows with glazing bars, while the first floor has one two-light and two three-light casement windows. There is a four-panel flush door to the left, which is sheltered by a 19th-century gabled wooden porch that has wavy-edged bargeboards. A red brick double ridge stack serves a back-to-back hearth aligned with the front door, and there is also a red brick single ridge stack to the right.

Local climate

Old Budna Farmhouse sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 96% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 87% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 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.
