Description

The Kyles is a late 17th-century cottage, originally built as a pair of cottages. It is timber-framed with a tarred brick plinth. The building has a red brick ridge stack and a thatched roof, which is half-hipped. It is one storey high with attics. An outshut is located to the right-hand side of the north elevation. There are two casement windows, and the main entrance is on the south elevation. The interior comprises two ground floor rooms in each of the original cottages and features exposed timber framing, floor frames, a side purlin roof, and original hearths.

Local climate

The Kyles sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 87% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 73% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 54% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 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.
