Description

Powers Hall is a late 16th century timber-framed and plastered house that was re-fronted in the 18th century using buff coloured gault brick. The southeast front features a parapet with a stone coping and end pilasters. The central section protrudes slightly and includes a three-window brick bay that rises through two storeys, flanked by one window range on either side. The building has two storeys, and the windows are double-hung sashes with glazing bars set in plain reveals. A six-panel door is framed by a wood doorcase with panelled reveals, pilasters, and a cornice supported by console brackets. The roof is hipped and tiled, and there is one original chimney stack with moulded offsets. Powers Hall and the barns associated with it form a group.

Local climate

Powers Hall 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 68% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 24 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 74% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
