Description

Cheyne Cottage is a building from 1910, designed by Clough Williams-Ellis and James B. Scott. It features a pantiled render and is composed of one storey with an attic beneath a large tiled mansard roof. The center of the building has two storeys with a prominent gable that includes a Venetian window on the first storey. There are two dormer windows on the left and one on the right. The ground floor has an informal arrangement of casement windows grouped in pairs, and the entrance door is sheltered by a canopy. The cottage is adorned with two cruciform chimneys and a central open bell cupola topped with a weathervane.

Cheyne 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 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 94% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 29 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 67% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
