Description

Gazebo, probably from the mid 19th century. It is timber framed and weather boarded with a plain tiled roof, featuring an octagonal plan. The ground floor has octagonal piers that support the upper floor, which is accessed by steps cut into an earth bank. The roadside section of the gazebo is supported by a red brick boundary wall. There are sashed windows on each roadside facade, with the east side having shutters, and a boarded door on the northeast side. Although it was originally part of the grounds of Preston House, which was last rebuilt in 1790 and demolished in the 1930s, this structure is likely not that old. A gazebo or similar structure is marked on the 1865 Ordnance Survey map.

Local climate

Gazebo sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 82% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 65% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 20 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 79% 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.

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.
