Description

Minden Cottage is a 16th-century or earlier timber-framed building, originally two cottages. The upper floor retains timber framing with plaster infilling and curved braces. The ground floor was later rebuilt in red brick. The roof is hipped and tiled. The building has three casement windows.

Minden 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.
