Description

Frenze House is an early 17th century timber-frame house that has been plastered. It features gabled cross wings at each end and has a steep tiled roof. The building stands two storeys tall with an attic. Modern two and three-light casement windows are present, along with Gothic-style attic windows in the gables. There is a rebuilt brick chimney stack that is positioned off centre, and a 19th century gabled porch is located in front of the stack.

Local climate

Frenze House 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 91% 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 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% 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.

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.
