Description

The Thatched Cottage, located at 14 Knightstone Road, is a late 18th century building, certainly constructed before 1804. It features a rendered exterior and a thatched roof, standing two storeys high. The cottage has one bay window with original casements. There are later extensions on either side of the thatched section that are not included in the listing. This building is the remaining part of a much larger house that was built for Reverend Leeves and is believed to be the oldest building in Weston-Super-Mare.

The Thatched Cottage receives an average of 820 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 53% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 72% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 8 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.
