Description

Mellows is a 17th-century timber-framed and plastered house located on the west side of Littlebury High Street. The building has two storeys and features a two-window range with horizontal sliding sashes. On the ground floor, there is one shallow bay that may have been a small shop window, along with two doorways, one of which is a six-panelled door with an architrave. The roof is covered with old tiles and has a central chimney stack with rectangular attached shafts.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 53% 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 0.4°C per decade since 1991.
