Description

The Village Pound in Botus Fleming is a small rectangular enclosure, likely of medieval origin, with walls that may date back to the 17th century. The structure measures approximately 8 meters by 10 meters and features slatestone rubble walls that stand about 1.5 meters high. A 20th-century cast iron gate is located at the southwest corner. Historical maps from 1907 indicate that this site was marked as a former pound.

Village Pound sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 990 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 80% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 89% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 9 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 91% of listed buildings. Of these, 3 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.
