Description

Roydon Mill is an early 19th-century watermill. It features yellow stock brick on the ground and first floors, with a timber frame and weatherboarding above. The roof is covered with grey slate and the building stands three storeys tall. It has a four-window range, with fixed iron windows that include glazing bars and small opening lights. The windows on the lower floors have segmental heads. At the south end of the mill, there are boarded loft doors and a projecting loft hoist that is supported on curved braces.

Local climate

Roydon Mill sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 90% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 88% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 52% 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.
