Description

This is a late 19th-century house located on Westwood Hill. It is two storeys high with an attic and basement, and has three windows. The house is constructed of yellow stock brick with stone dressings, and has a moderately pitched slated roof with a gable over the projecting right bay. The windows have varying numbers of lights, chamfered tops, and stone lintels. A porch with cresting sits at the front. A London County Council blue plaque commemorates that the Antarctic explorer, Sir Ernest Shackleton, lived here between 1874 and 1922, and the building is listed primarily because of this association.

Local climate

St David's sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 82% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 84% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 55% 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.
