Description

The School Hall, originally part of the grange of St Augustine's Abbey in Canterbury, dates from the early 16th century. It is a long timber-framed building, with the ground floor rebuilt in 16th century red brick. The timber framing is partly visible above on the east side, where it is infilled with red brick, although some sections are weatherboarded. The first floor on the west side is entirely weatherboarded. The building has a tiled roof supported by ten king posts inside. The west front features two projections that were originally wagon entrances, adorned with tiled gables and two small red brick buttresses at the lower part of the ground floor. The east front is distinguished by seven loop lights.

Local climate

The School Hall 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.

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.
