Description

Hoo Hall is possibly a 17th-century timber-framed house that was largely rebuilt in red brick in the late 18th century. The front features a parapet with a stone coping and band. The building has two storeys and a three-window range, with double-hung sash windows that include glazing bars and are set in plain reveals. The central window on the first storey is designed in a simple Palladian style, while the outer windows are three-light. There is a central six-panel door with a semi-circular fanlight, which is blocked, and it has a wood doorease with panelled reveals and pilasters.

Local climate

Hoo Hall sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 680 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 60% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 20 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 78% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 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.
