Description

Champion Cottage is an early 19th-century villa located on Champion Hill in Southwark. The building is constructed of yellow brick with a low-pitched, hipped slate roof. It is two storeys in height, with a three-bay arrangement, and features a contemporary one-story coach-house extension to the right. The central door is round-arched, adorned with fluted quarter columns, a moulded cornice head, and a radial fanlight. The sash windows, which have mostly renewed glazing bars, are set within very slightly cambered arches with gauged brickwork. The interior has not been inspected. The group value of the building lies in its contribution to the historic character of the area.

Champion 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 95% 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 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 57% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
