Description

Coppins is a 14th-century house featuring an open hall and a one-storey cross wing. The building is timber framed and plastered, with the frame exposed on the south side of the jettied wing. There is weatherboarding below the jettied section and on the east end wall of the hall range. The roof is hipped over the wing and gabled over the hall, with a restored red brick chimney stack located on the hall ridge. A peg-tiled lean-to porch is situated at the south-east corner. The south elevation of the ground storey has a set of three wooden casements beneath the jetty and two sets along the hall range, while the first storey features a range of three casement sets. The hall was laterally divided with an added first storey during the 16th and 17th centuries. The floor joists of the wing are heavy, with central tenons, and the hall contains heavy wind braces and a cross-quadrate crown post.

Local climate

Coppins sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 89% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 50% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 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.
