Description

Stewards Farmhouse is a building dating from the 15th century or earlier. It is timber-framed and clad with white painted weatherboards. The roof is unusually steeply pitched, possibly dating from the 14th century, and is ridged and hipped, covered with peg tiles and clay bonnets. There is a plain red brick chimney stack that is off-centre to the main ridge, with another later chimney at the west end.

On the first storey, there are three windows: small-paned sliding sashes on the left and a pair of early small-paned casements on the right. In front of the chimney stack, there is a gable porch that features a set of three small-paned casements on the left and two sets of matching casements on the right, all with square leaded glazing. Additionally, there is a single-storey lean-to against the west end wall.

Local climate

Stewards Farmhouse 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 98% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 98% of listed buildings.

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.
