Description

Ayres End is a mainly 17th century timber-framed and plastered building with a tiled roof, which has been restored and renovated. The timber framing is fully exposed on the south front. The building consists of one storey and attics, featuring casement windows and three modern gabled dormers. There is a chimney stack with diagonal shafts that has been rebuilt. The eastern range consists of red brick, single-storey buildings from various periods. The building at the east end is mostly rebuilt but retains some exposed timbers on its east end, and it has a thatched roof. At the west end, there is a 19th century building with a pantiled roof, and between these structures is a modern building.

Local climate

Ayres End 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.
