Description
Tile House is an early 19th century house situated on a square plan. It is two storeys high, with rendered walls and a hipped roof covered in machine-made red tiles. The south front features a central front door set within a three-centred arch. To either side of the door are a pair of Regency sash windows, each with two panes and marginal lights. There are two matching windows above, with a blind recess over the front door.

It experiences an average of 18 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 83% of listed buildings. Of these, 9 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.
