Description

Lakes Farmhouse is probably of 17th-century origin, though it was entirely re-faced in 19th-century red brick. It has a steeply pitched pantile roof with gabled ends. The farmhouse is two storeys high with an attic, featuring a window in the gable end. There are three windows, with two and three-light casements having painted stone lintels and keyblocks. A panelled door is set below a matching lintel. A central rendered chimney stack rises from the roof. A brick wing extends to the rear and is covered by a steep roof of black glazed pantiles.

Local climate

Lakes Farmhouse sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 93% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 96% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 61% 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.
