Description

Hornend is a house located on Cheney Road in Eastcote, with an entirely Victorian external appearance. It is two storeys high and features many irregularly placed windows. The roofs are tiled, and the walls are a mix of painted brick and stucco. The rear elevation reveals an older central section, dating from around 1600, which is flanked by late 19th century and early 20th century wings. The older part has been refaced with mock half-timbering and roughcast filling, and includes a large early 20th century canted bay that extends through two floors. Inside the older section, there is a side-purlin roof supported by wind-braces, along with some exposed timbers, including chamfered beams on the ground floor. Stout posts made of elm are present on both floors. The front elevation features a door with an early 19th century patterned radial fanlight.

Local climate

Hornend sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 93% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 91% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 65% 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.

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.
