Description

River Farmhouse is an 18th-century building, possibly with an earlier core. It is constructed of red brick and features a steeply-pitched pantile roof. The house has two storeys and a T-shaped plan. The ground floor has casement windows with segmental heads. The gables are parapetted and have brick tumbling, along with plain string courses. There are chimney stacks at the east and west gables, as well as an off-centre stack in the south wing. Additionally, there is a gabled one-storey extension on the west side and a lean-to on the north side.

River Farmhouse sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 730 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 77% 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 26 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 72% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
