Description

The Hobbs is a timber-framed building, likely originating from the 16th century, with alterations made in the 17th century when a chimney stack and floor were added. The building has been renovated and consists of one storey and attics. It features casement windows and a hipped roof that is tiled, with small gablets at both the north-west and south-east ends. Inside, the structure showcases exposed timber-framing, and the roof contains smoke blackened timbers.

Local climate

The Hobbs 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 79% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 54% 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.
