Description

Pollards is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century, with the right-hand parlour cell likely being a later addition. To the right side, there is a small timber-framed building, probably used as a service unit, which was originally detached but is now connected to the main house by mid-20th century extensions. The structure features timber framing, modern panelled plasterwork, and a colourwashed brick casing on the left-hand gable, topped with a plaintiled roof. It has two storeys and attics, arranged in a three-cell plan. The façade includes three early 20th century small pane sash windows in flush frames, and there is a cross passage entrance with an early 20th century gabled porch that has a moulded four-centre arch with a hood mould above and a boarded door. Inside, there is an internal stack and notable exposed timbering. The ground floor has two blocked four-light moulded mullion windows, and there are attics at both ends of the house, each accessible by the original newel stairs.

Pollards sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 63% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 21 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 78% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.
