Description

Hall Cottage is a cottage dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century. It features a timber-framed and plastered construction. The main block is two storeys high with a gabled peg tile roof, while there is a one-storey lean-to block with attics made of flint, which has red brick quoins and dressings, topped with a slate roof. This lean-to section includes three gabled dormers with bargeboards and segmental brick arched casements that have small panes. A large chimney stack rises through the roof slope. At the rear, the two-storey range has large gable end stacks and triangular-headed windows in the rear elevation.

Local climate

Hall Cottage 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 98% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 72% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 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.
