Description

This is a cottage, originally the coach house to High Hall. It was likely built around 1840. The building is constructed of red brick with a red plain tiled roof. A central square brick chimney stack rises prominently, featuring four large, ornate circular shafts decorated with twisted and fleuron moulded brickwork. The central section is a two-storey forward gable with dentilled eaves and a moulded cornice. The main range is single-storey with attics, and incorporates left and right flat-headed eaves dormers. There are three bays of windows, each containing a 1, 2, or 3-light leaded casement with Gothic heads. A three-step approach leads to a board door on the left return of the gable.

Local climate

The Coach House 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 60% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 20 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 78% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 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.
