Description

Stonage Farmhouse is a medieval timber-framed and plastered house, likely dating from the 15th century. It originally featured cross wings at the north-east and south-west ends, but the south-west wing has since been destroyed, resulting in hipped roofs on the south-west side. The north-east wing has a jettied upper storey with exposed timber framing. The building has two storeys and attics, with 20th-century casement windows. The roof is tiled and includes an attic gable on the main block. The central chimney stack, which is from the 17th century, has been rebuilt above the roof level.

Local climate

Stonage Farmhouse 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 86% of listed buildings.

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.
