Description

Mockbeggar is a late 19th century brick house with a gabled roof, which is not particularly notable on its own. However, at the south-east corner, it incorporates an early 17th century house that features two fully panelled rooms, each with original fireplaces and overmantels. Additionally, there is a 19th century timber conservatory located at the west end of the building.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.
