Description

Central House is a building that dates from around 1800 and is currently used as offices. It is constructed of brown brick with red brick dressings and features a parapet with three pedimented dormers set in the pitched roof behind. The building has three storeys, an attic, and a sunk basement, with a total of five bays. The central three-bay section is slightly recessed. There are round-arched entrances in one-storey extensions on both the left and right sides. The sash windows, which have glazing bars, are topped with gauged, flat brick arches. The outer ground-floor bays contain tripartite windows set in shallow, segment-headed recesses. The interior has not been inspected.

Local climate

Central House 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.
