Description

The Rectory is a house built in the 18th or 19th century. It is constructed from gault brick and has a grey slate roof. The building is two storeys high and features a five-window range, with the centre section projecting forward and topped with a gable. The windows are small paned vertical sliding sash types, each with gauged brick arches above them. The central entrance consists of a four-panelled door flanked by two lights, and there is a fanlight above with seven oval lights. To the right, there is a gault brick chimney stack.

Local climate

The Rectory 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 96% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 58% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
