Description

Evergreen is a pair of attached houses that have been converted into one dwelling, dating from around the mid-18th century. The building is constructed from rendered and painted stone rubble, topped with an asbestos slate and rag slate roof featuring gable ends. On the left-hand gable end, there is a projecting stone rubble chimney stack with set-offs and a cloam oven projection. Originally, the structure consisted of two one-room cottages with entrances located near the center, and it is built into the side of a steeply sloping bank.

The building has two storeys and a regular three-window front. On the ground floor, there is a 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash window on the left, a partly glazed 20th-century stable-type door, a 16-pane sash window with horns in a blocked entrance, and another 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash window to the right. The first floor features two 19th-century two-light sliding sashes and a 19th-century two-light centre-hung casement window in the middle.

Inside, the ceiling beams have been replaced in the right-hand room, and there is a partly blocked fireplace on the left-hand gable end.

Local climate

Evergreen sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,060 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 85% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 94% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 8 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 93% 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.

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.
