Description

Old Corner Cottage is a Grade II listed building that dates from the late 16th century to the early 17th century. Originally built as one house, it is now divided into cottages. The structure is timber framed and plastered, topped with a concrete tiled roof. The front features an outshut that suggests a possible lobby entrance. The cottage has one storey and an attic, with scattered windows that include casements. There are four gabled dormers, also with casement windows. The entrance door is located at the outshut, and the main stack is axial on the ridge.

Local climate

Old Corner Cottage 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 96% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 50% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 14 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 87% of listed buildings. Of these, 8 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.
