Description

Tipton Mill is an 18th-century red brick structure located on the bank of the River Otter, 700 meters north of Little Barton. The building features dark headers and is two stories tall with dormers. The mill has two wheels positioned at right angles to each other, and they may still be operational. Adjoining the mill is a millhouse that includes two sash windows and a modern porch. There is a wing at the rear of the building, which is said to have once served as a bakery. The entire complex is topped with a continuous slate roof.

Tipton Mill receives an average of 800 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 55% 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 16 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 84% of listed buildings. Of these, 6 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.
