Description

Greylands is a timber-framed house dating from the 16th to 17th century, with exposed timber framing and plaster infill, and it may have origins that are even earlier. The building has two storeys and features a three-window range with casement windows. At the front, there is a central modern gabled porch that has a thatched roof. An addition with a lean-to roof extends from the east end of the house. The roof is thatched and hipped at the west end.

Local climate

Greylands sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 62% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 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.
