Description

Bridge House is a 17th-century timber-framed building that was altered in the 19th century. It features a combination of plaster, painted brick, roughcast, and cement rendering, topped with an old tile roof. The building has an L-shaped plan and stands two stories tall with attics. The gable end facing the road includes a cusped bargeboard and a horizontal sash window. The right-hand range at the rear has a similar gable on the east side and sash windows set in flush architrave frames, along with a floor band. There are modern single-story additions on the north side.

Local climate

Bridge House 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 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 98% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 63% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 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.
