Description

The toll house, built around 1860, is a single-storey structure with an octagonal plan. It features carstone walls with gault brick rustication at the corners. The roof is hipped and covered with slate, topped by a central octagonal chimney stack. Each wall has one hung sash window with a single central glazing bar. The doorway is located on the west side. This building was used for collecting tolls from drovers along the banks of Mortons Leam.

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