Description

Brayfield Lodge is a 19th-century lodge built from dressed rubble stone, featuring a slate roof with gables and hips, and a chimney with two gothic panelled stone shafts. The building has elaborate fretted eaves and bargeboards, adorned with large wooden finials at the verges and apexes. It is two storeys high and has a half-octagon shape on the east side. The hipped roof supports an open porch with slim wooden columns and ornamental braces. The Tudor arched doorway is fitted with a two-panel door, and there is a carved shield on the stonework above the porch. The windows are two-light mullioned and transomed designs, featuring stone hoodmoulds and very elaborately patterned iron lattice glazing. To the west, there is a wide bay extension made of ashlar stone, with the roof and eaves details continuing from the main structure. This extension has one three-light window on each floor, both with hoodmoulds but plain glazing. The south elevation features only a door.

Local climate

Brayfield Lodge 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 89% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 54% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
