Description

The Mausoleum is a structure located in Painshill Park, Cobham, dating from the mid to late 18th century. It is built of brick, with parts faced in ashlar and others rendered. The design was originally based on a triumphal arch, featuring a central arch that has since collapsed, along with side arches that are topped with round heads. At the time of the last survey, the mausoleum was in a ruinous condition.

Local climate

The Mausoleum sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 730 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 77% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 66% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 38 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 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.
