Description

Dene Farmhouse is a house dating from the late 16th century, which was altered and extended in 1904. It features a timber frame with red brick infill at the base and plaster on the first floor, topped with a plain tiled roof. The building consists of four framed bays and is two storeys high, with a continuous jetty supported by brackets and a moulded bressumer. The roof is hipped and has a cluster of stacks to the centre right, with an additional stack and gable to the left. On the first floor, there are five wooden casements with alternating three and two lights, while the ground floor has four wooden casements with four and two lights, along with a rib and stud door located to the centre left. To the left, there is a single-storey extension built in 1904 using re-used bricks, and an early 20th-century extension at the rear. Dene Farmhouse was originally built as the steward's house for the now-demolished Dene House, which was the seat of the Oxenden family until 1775.

Local climate

Dene Farmhouse 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 greater than that of 59% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 10 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 90% of listed buildings. Of these, 6 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.
