Description
Mead Manor is a timber-framed building that dates from before 1400. Originally, it was an open hall with one bay and a two-storey bay at each end. In the late 16th century, the hall was ceiled over, and in the 18th century, the exterior was altered with the addition of an extra bay. The building has two storeys, with the ground floor rebuilt in red brick. The first floor features curved braces with plaster infilling. It has a steeply-pitched hipped tiled roof with a 17th-century chimneystack and three casement windows. A later gabled porch has also been added. Inside, the original hall partition remains intact at the north end, and there is some stone in the chimney that originates from a 13th-century ecclesiastical building.
Local climate
Mead Manor 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.
