Description

The Town Pound is a pound dating from the late 18th century or early 19th century. It is a square enclosure with an opening on the southeast side. The walls are made of stone rubble, approximately 6 feet high, and feature red brick quoins. The top of the walls has a flat stone coping. The door is made of planks and is not original to the structure.

Local climate

The Town Pound receives an average of 800 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 54% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 87% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 7 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 95% of listed buildings. Of these, 3 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.
