Description

Corner House is a 15th to 16th century timber-framed and plastered building located on the east side of The Street in Kersey. The timber framing is fully exposed, and the structure has been restored. It features a tiled roof with a ridge chimney stack and stands two storeys tall. The front has a three-window range of modern casements. At the north-east end, there is a cross wing that includes a blocked original doorway, which has been partly restored and features moulded spandrels.

Local climate

Corner House 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 78% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 65% 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.
