Description

New Found Out is a cottage, originally a pair of cottages, dating from the late 18th century and likely depicted on Chapman and Andre's plan of Essex from 1779. The building features some mid-19th century windows and is constructed with weatherboarding, a pantiled roof, and a red brick chimneystack. It is two storeys high with two windows; the first floor has 16-pane sash windows set in moulded architraves, while the ground floor has mid-19th century sashes with verticals only, framed by earlier moulded surrounds. There is a 20th-century half-glazed door. At the rear, there is an outshut, probably added in the early to mid-19th century, which has a ground floor of painted brick and is weatherboarded above, featuring two horizontally sliding sashes.

Local climate

New Found Out 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 76% 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.
