Description

The Lindens is a villa built around 1850-1860. It features gault brick construction and a hipped slate roof with cut-brick bracketed eaves cornice. The building has end stacks and is designed in a double pile layout. There are flat arches above three recessed four-pane hung sashes. The central doorway is set within a double recessed semi-circular headed arch, resting on stone impost blocks that are inscribed with "The Lindens." Access to the entrance is via two steps leading up to a four-panelled door.

Local climate

The Lindens 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 93% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 53% 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.
