Description

Wallaces is a house dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century. It is constructed with a timber frame and pebble dash, featuring gabled roofs covered in peg tiles. The building consists of a one-storey and attic 'hall' block, along with a two-storey crosswing that has a jettied front on the southwest end. The windows are early 20th century metal casements set in timber frames, with rectangular leaded lights. The front door, located in a baffle entry position, is from the 18th century and has six raised and fielded panels. The ridge line stack is of the 17th century concertina type, and there is a small kitchen stack at the rear of the crosswing. Four joists are visible on the front jetty. Inside, one 17th century door remains, and the inglenook stack is enclosed, featuring an early 19th century mantel shelf.

Local climate

Wallaces sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 95% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 91% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 52% 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.
