Description

Garnons is a 17th-century building with 18th-century and later alterations. It is timber framed and plastered, featuring two crosswings at the west end. A later gabled porch is located on the south front, which has six windows, mostly 6-pane sash-hung, arranged in a 3 over 3 pattern. The roofs are ridged and gabled, covered with peg tiles. There is one red brick chimney stack to the west of the main range. Extending south from the west end is a long one-storey range with a hipped crosswing at the south end. This section is weatherboarded with plastered upper walls and a peg-tiled roof.

Local climate

Garnons 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 71% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 26 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 72% 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.
