Description

Molehill Cottage is an early 19th-century red brick house, though it may contain older fabric. It is a two-story dwelling with a half-hipped thatched roof. The windows have glazing bars.

Local climate

Molehill Cottage sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 90% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 52% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 14 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 87% of listed buildings. Of these, 7 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.
