Description

The Bungalow is a semi-detached cottage, likely built in the mid-19th century, and may have originally served as an outbuilding for the adjacent house. It features brick walls and a stone slate roof, with a central brick chimney. The cottage is a single storey and has a gabled tiled porch that includes a part-glazed panelled door. There are two casement windows, which have horizontal glazing bars and are set beneath segmental arches. This building is included for its group value with the nearby structures.

Local climate

The Bungalow receives an average of 770 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 64% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 75% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 9 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 91% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 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.
