Description

No. 85 The Causeway is a very small 18th-century painted brick cottage, which may have been converted from an outbuilding. It features a steeply pitched Collyweston stone roof with coped gable ends. The cottage has one storey and an attic, with a single bay plank door and an adjoining two-light casement window. There is an attic window in the gable end, and the gables display tumbled brickwork. A brick chimney stack is located at the rear of the building.

Local climate

85, The Causeway 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.
