Description

Cheriton House is a stone house built in 1728. It has a steeply pitched roof covered in new tiles, with coped gable ends and oversailing eaves. The building is two storeys high with an attic, and has three bays. The first floor features tripartite sash windows with glazing bars, with a central single-light sash window. The ground floor has two ashlar splayed bay windows and a central fielded panel door with a rectangular fanlight and a dentilled hood supported by shaped brackets. There are three hipped dormers in the roof.

The house is arranged with a double pile plan, meaning rooms are present on both sides of a central passage, and incorporates twin end gables, each featuring an ashlar stack with a cornice. The site was previously occupied by the chapter house of Thorney Abbey.

Local climate

Cheriton House 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 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 94% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 58% 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.

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.
