Description

Sextons is a 17th-century timber-framed cottage that has been plastered. It features a very steeply pitched pantile roof with gabled ends and is one storey high with an attic. The cottage has two 19th or 20th-century casement windows and two wedge-shaped dormers. There is a central modern porch and a central brick chimney stack. At the north end, there is probably an early 19th-century two-storey addition made of clay lump with a pantile roof, which includes a one-storey lean-to at the end and small casement windows.

Local climate

Sextons 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 86% 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 62% 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.

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.
