Description

The Pavilion is a house dating from the late 15th century to the early 16th century, which was restored as a pavilion in 1933. It has two storeys and features a plain red tile roof. The building includes a projecting weatherboarded jettied crosswing and a small lean-to on the left side. It is timber framed and plastered, with a three-window range of modern casements on the left and three more on the crosswing. There are two plank and muntin doors and three red brick chimney stacks, one from the mid-16th century and another from the late 16th century, both of which have original fireplaces. Inside, there are several painted plaster panels from around 1600. The crosswing has arched braces to cambered tie beams and a two-armed crownpost roof. The main frame and collar purlin are stop-chamfered and were rebuilt in the mid-16th century, featuring a 16th-century arched brick fireplace along with moulded bridging and floor joists. There is a 17th-century stair tower with original 17th-century replaced panelling and a door beneath the stairs, as well as 16th and 17th-century paving slabs.

Local climate

The Pavilion 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 94% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 88% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer 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 0.3°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.
