Description

The Nook is a house dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. It has a timber frame, roughcast render, and a steeply pitched roof that is currently covered with asbestos tiles. The house features end stacks and stands two storeys high. On the upper floor, there are three wooden casement windows that may be in their original openings, while the ground floor has two casement windows flanking the doorway. To the left side, there is a single bay wing that is likely an extension for the kitchen.

Local climate

The Nook 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 87% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 55% 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.
