Description

Bridge House is likely a 17th-century building, possibly with alterations in later periods. It is a two-story timber-framed structure, now plastered, with tiled roofs. The building features cross wings to the north and south, each with projecting upper stories supported by carved brackets. The front facade has been significantly altered and is now clad in modern pebble-dash. The windows are arranged 1:3:1, with moulded hoods above the upper windows of the cross wings. These upper windows are sash windows with glazing bars. The cross wings lack ground floor windows. The entrance is marked by an open pediment doorcase featuring reeded half-columns. Above the door is a blank fanlight, and the panelled reveals contain a modern door. Bridge House is part of a group with numbers 10 to 18.

Local climate

Bridge House 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 98% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 72% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 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.
