Description

Church End is a timber-framed house that dates from the late 16th century, although it has been significantly altered and is partly faced with brick. The building has two storeys and features a south front with a range of three windows, which are 20th-century casements. At the rear, there is a short gabled wing and a large external chimney stack made of brick, which has three octagonal shafts topped with star caps. The roof is tiled.

Local climate

Church End 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 91% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 58% 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.
