Description

Debden House is an early 19th-century house that has been extended in the 19th and 20th centuries and is now used as an adult education centre. It is constructed of painted brick and has a slate roof. The building has a rectangular plan and features three chimney stacks that are arranged irregularly. There are various extensions to the north and a 20th-century link unit to the northwest that connects it to a 19th-century brick building, which may have been a former coach house.

The house is two storeys tall. On the southwest elevation, the ground floor has three French windows with external louvred shutters, and there is a string course above. The first floor has three 19th-century casement windows, also with external louvred shutters. The roof is hipped with a shallow pitch and has a long overhang at the eaves. The overall appearance is asymmetrical, and the tall chimney stacks feature vertical slots between the shafts, linked by common cornices.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 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.
