Description

Summerhill is an early 19th-century building featuring two parallel ranges and two storeys. The ground floor is constructed of red brick, while the upper storey is tile hung. It has a slate roof with an eaves cornice. The building includes three sash windows with intact glazing bars, although the wooden shutters have been removed from the ground floor windows. The entrance is highlighted by a doorcase with a wide flat hood supported by a large, elaborate scroll bracket, along with a low rectangular fanlight and a door made up of six fielded panels.

Local climate

Summerhill sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 86% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 53% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 24 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 74% 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.

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.
