Description

The Yews is a house dating from the early 19th century, with the possibility of an earlier core. It stands two storeys high and features three windows. The building is constructed of painted brick, while the side and rear walls are rendered. It has a hipped roof covered with slate and a rear chimney made of red brick. The windows are small-pane sash types with segmental-arched heads. The entrance doorway, also from the early 19th century, has a six-panelled door with an oblong fanlight, surrounded by a reeded architrave and topped with a flat canopy that has a moulded fascia.

Local climate

The Yews 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 89% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% 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.
