Description

Blandford Lodge is a late 19th-century building located in Whiteknights Park, specifically on Chancellor's Way. This two-storey structure is primarily constructed of grey brick, featuring stone dressings and architraves. The facade is arranged in a 2:1:2 bay configuration, with a central gable. It has plate glass sash windows and a modified Doric porch. To the west, there are two gables that include a two-storey angled bay. Blandford Lodge is part of the Whiteknights Park development, likely built in the 1870s, and is currently part of the University, where it has undergone alterations. The parish boundary with Early Church Parish runs through the site.

Local climate

Blandford Lodge sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 740 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 76% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 68% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 57% 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.
