Description

The Homestead, formerly known as the Bell Inn, is a red brick house dating from 1806. It features a pantile roof with coped gable ends and brick dentil eaves. The building is two storeys high and has three windows, which are sashes with glazing bars. The ground floor windows have rubbed brick arches above them. There is a central doorway that has a moulded architrave doorcase and a panelled door, with a modern door inserted alongside it. At each end of the house, there is a brick chimney stack. The datestone on the gable end facing the road reads "1806 P Finch."

Local climate

The Homestead sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 89% 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 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 65% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
