Description

Sunnyside is a 16th century or earlier timber-framed building located on the north side of The Street in Bethersden. The ground floor is refaced with stucco, while the first floor is hung with curved tiles, maintaining the overhang of the first floor on a bressumer with a bellcast above it. The building features a half-hipped tiled roof and consists of two storeys and an attic in the gable end. There are three casement windows present. At the east end, there is a former shop that is one storey high, faced with painted brick and topped with a half-hipped tiled roof. Above the shop window, there is a bellcast supported by diagonal struts.

Local climate

Sunnyside 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 greater than that of 52% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.
