Description

The Tea Room, likely built in the later 17th century, was originally an orangery and laundry and is now used as a tearoom. It is a long building made of red brick with a tiled hipped roof. The south facade features six double doors with windows in between, all having square heads and gauged brick. The windows are two-light with wooden mullions and transoms, and there is a moulded cornice at the eaves. The north elevation has a central advanced wing with stucco quoins and similar windows.

Local climate

Tea Room 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 83% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 78% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 59% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 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.
