Description

Pondside is a house, which was later divided into two dwellings. It dates from the mid to late 17th century and was altered in the 20th century. The building has a timber frame that is plastered and features a steeply pitched roof covered with plain tiles. It has a broad two-cell lobby entrance plan and is one storey high with attics. The central entrance consists of a half-glazed and half-panelled door set within a 20th-century closed gabled porch. On either side of the entrance are two-light glazing bar casements, and there are gabled dormers above. The building has a renewed red brick plinth and a rebuilt central axial ridge stack. To the left, there is a 20th-century lean-to outshut, which has an attic light and exposed purlins. Inside, there is a chamfered cross axial binding beam and chamfered posts, although much of the framing is largely concealed. The first floor has not been inspected.

Local climate

Pondside 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 89% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 98% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 57% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 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.
