Description

Holmfield is a probably late 17th century rendered stone house located on Cherry Orton Road in Orton Waterville. It features a thatched roof with gabled ends and is one storey high with an attic. The house has three gabled dormers that contain old casement windows. On the ground floor, there are four windows, three of which have 18th century stone frames with keyblocks, while two are sashes with glazing bars and casements. The building has brick stacks at both ends and a central ridge. At the south end, there is a single storey addition that is also rendered with a thatched roof and includes one casement window.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 57% 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.
