Description

The Red Lion Public House is a building dating from around 1600. It has five bays and two storeys, constructed with a timber frame and plastered exterior. The roof is ridged and gabled, covered with peg-tiles. There are two chimney stacks at the ends and a third chimney stack positioned off-centre along the length of the building.

On the first storey, there is a range of four windows, which include a mix of sliding and casement styles. The ground storey features a full-length leaded flat verandah, beneath which are three semi-hexagonal bow windows with small paned sashes, some of which lack horns. There are also two front doors. Inside, the oaken frame is visible, particularly the joists of the first floor.

Local climate

The Red Lion Public House sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 650 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 64% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 22 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 77% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 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.
