Description

The Haywards is a house that likely dates from the late 17th century, with an early 18th-century wing at the rear. It has an L-shaped plan and is constructed of red brick, featuring rusticated brick quoins, a moulded brick band at the first floor level, and a moulded brick eaves cornice. The roof is pantiled, and the building has two storeys and an attic.

The front has a five-window range with various casements and segmental arches. The ground floor includes some original windows with square leaded panes, and the two windows on the right side have been coupled together. There is a central doorway that has a moulded brick architrave, frieze, and cornice, along with an original two-panel door and a moulded doorframe that incorporates a rectangular fanlight. An internal stack features a vertical band of moulded bricks on the front.

The right gable has a moulded brick band above the attic window, while the left gable is not visible. There is a 19th-century lean-to on the right side that includes one re-used 17th-century leaded window. The rear wing is a single storey with an attic, but part of its roof is missing.

Local climate

The Haywards sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 730 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 80% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 59% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 15 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 85% of listed buildings. Of these, 9 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.
