Description

Corner Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-frame house that has been plastered. The south front is faced in brick, which was added in the early 19th century. It features a steep pantile roof with gabled ends and an off-centre brick chimney stack that has been rebuilt at the top. The house has two storeys and an attic, with a very small dormer on the north side. The windows are 19th-century casements, and there is a modern glazed door.

Corner 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 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 95% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 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.
