Description

Dunton Hall is an early 19th-century building featuring a yellow brick front that likely covers an earlier structure from the 18th century. The hall has two storeys and a three-window range, with double-window sashes that include glazing bars set in stuccoed reveals, topped with segmental arched heads. A central doorway is accentuated by a Doric portico supported by plain columns. The doorway also features a rectangular fanlight with ornamental glazing. The roof is double-pitched, with tiles on the north block and slate on the hipped south side. The building underwent renovation in 1974.

Dunton Hall sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 670 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 99% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 86% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 22 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 77% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.
