Description

Marsh House is a substantial brick and pantile house dating from 1742, with alterations in 1793. The building is hip-roofed and of two storeys with attics. The central part of the front façade projects slightly and features a pediment above a round window. There are seven flush frame sash windows with glazing bars arranged on the front elevation. A cornice runs along the eaves. The front door is a six-panel design set within a pedimented case. A rainwater head dating from 1742 is also present. The building is recognised as being of particularly important group value.

It experiences an average of 7 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 95% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 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.
