Description

Tower Farm is a house dating from the 16th century. It features a timber frame that is clad in red brick and has tile hanging, topped with a plain tile roof. The building stands two storeys high and includes a plinth and a plat band to the left, with tile hanging on the first floor. The roof is hipped to the right, and there is a stack at the left end and another at the centre right. The windows are irregularly arranged, with five 20th-century wood casements on the first floor and three 20th-century wood casements on the ground floor. To the left, there is a 20th-century wood and glass-paned door. This structure forms a wing at the rear of a late 19th-century red brick house, which is also two storeys high and features two prominent bay windows, although that house is not of special interest.

Tower Farm 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 81% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 51% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 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.
