Description

Turners is a house that dates from the 16th century or earlier. It features a timber frame with pargetted panels, and the exposed frame is visible on the right return. The roof is hipped and covered with red plain tiles, and there are red brick chimney stacks on both the left and right sides. The building has two storeys and a three-window range of vertically sliding sashes, with the first-floor windows being 18th-century small-paned and set in moulded surrounds. The ground floor includes 19th-century flat-roofed bays. A central panelled door is topped with a light, and there are panelled pilasters and a plain frieze, although there was no canopy at the time of the re-survey. Originally, this was a house with a right crossing, and the crown post roof to the crosswing remains in place.

Local climate

Turners 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 85% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
