Description

Mill House is a late 19th century red brick house designed in the "Tudor period" style, featuring black brick diapering. It has two storeys, with the main block gabled at the front and wide overhanging eaves. Two gabled wings extend from the west side. The windows are casements adorned with square hood moulds. At the front, there is a gabled open porch that projects outward. The roof is tiled and includes a central stack with grouped shafts.

It experiences an average of 29 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 67% 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.
