Description

The Oaks is an 18th-century house located on the south side of Mill Street in Newton St. Faith. It is built of colourwashed brick and features a steeply-pitched thatched roof, with 1½ storeys. The front has three widely spaced windows, which are two- and four-light casements, likely from the 19th century. The doorway is off-centre and has a moulded architrave, a four-panelled door, and a later canopy above it. The gables are parapeted, with the east gable rendered and an internal chimney stack. There is an off-centre chimney stack on the ridge line, and two attic dormers are present on the south side. Additionally, there is a one-storey pantiled range of outbuildings at the east gable.

Local climate

The Oaks sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 84% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 92% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 21 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 78% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.
