Description
West Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse with two storeys and a basement, featuring an L-shaped form. It is constructed of black knapped flint with rusticated white brick dressings and has a black glazed pantiled roof. There is an end chimney-stack on the south side. The front has a three-window range with small-paned sashes set in shallow reveals. A central half-glazed door is approached by a short flight of steps and is flanked by a portico with a triangular pediment supported by Tuscan columns. The long side range, made from the same materials as the front and apparently built at the same time, includes five small-paned sash windows and a secondary entry.
Local climate
West Farmhouse 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 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 99% 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.
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.
