Description

Home Farmhouse is a 17th century timber-framed and plastered house that has undergone alterations in the 18th century and later. The building has two storeys and attics, featuring a four-window range of modern casements. A notable feature is the six-panel door, which is framed by an 18th-century pedimented doorcase. The roof is tiled and hipped, with two gabled dormers at the rear. It includes an original central chimney stack and an external stack with offsets at the north end, although the shaft has been rebuilt. The east front displays a coved plaster eaves cornice, and the roof slopes down low at the rear.

Home Farmhouse 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 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 86% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 55% 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.
