Description
Tinniswood is a house dating from around 1600. It is timber framed and has a plaster-rendered exterior. The roof is covered with combed wheat reed thatch and is hipped at the crosswings, with an original red brick and plastered ridge stack serving the hall. This is a double-ended hall house with crosswings that project only on the south side. The hall has one storey and an attic, featuring a gable dormer on the south side, along with a modern casement window and doorway. The crosswings are two storeys high and have two small modern windows, which may be in original openings at each end. Inside, the hall range consists of three bays, including a narrower chimney bay. The main beams are intersecting and feature leaf stop chamfers, with arch-braced tie beams and jowled heads on the main posts.
Local climate
Tinniswood 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 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 85% of listed buildings.
It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 52% 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.
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.
