Description

The Limes is an early 19th-century house located on New Street. It has three storeys and features three windows, constructed of brown brick with red brick relieving arches. The windows are missing their glazing bars. On the ground floor, there are two late 19th-century stone bay windows. The entrance is marked by a doorway that is approached with pilasters, a projecting cornice, and a semi-circular fanlight. The Delf stream flows in front of the house.

Local climate

The Limes 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 87% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 67% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 8 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 94% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 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.
