Description

Riverside House is a detached house built around the early 18th century, with extensions from the 19th century and alterations in the 20th century. It is constructed of rendered brick, featuring a slate roof on the front pitch that falls to a parapet, while the rear has a steeper concrete tiled roof. The front facade has three storeys, while the rear has two storeys plus dormers. The building consists of five main bays, with a slightly projecting center of three bays added in the 20th century that includes the entrance. The windows on the first floor are square-headed, while the outer windows were formerly arched. There are raised bands between the storeys. Inside, there are two well-preserved early 18th-century rooms located on the ground floor, east of the center, both retaining their original panelling, fireplaces, and cornices.

Local climate

Riverside House 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 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 90% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 64% 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.
