Description

The Firs is a mid-19th century villa designed by George Jennings. It is three windows wide and two storeys high, built of stock brickwork with terracotta detailing. The roof is low-pitched and slate-covered, with a wide overhang supported by brackets. The ground floor has rusticated bay windows with cornices and blocking courses on either side of a central entrance, which is accentuated by a Corinthian porch. The first-floor windows are round-headed, each with a richly decorated architrave.

Local climate

The Firs 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 81% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 54% 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.
