Description

Harragrove is a cottage built around 1810, possibly designed by Sir Jeffry Wyatville in connection with his design for Endsleigh House for the 6th Duke of Bedford. The cottage is linked to the kitchen gardens at Endsleigh. It is constructed from brick and stone rubble, featuring gabled slate roofs and diagonally-set rendered and brick chimney shafts. The plan is irregular, with a wing to the east of the main block that may have been added later. The south elevation displays an asymmetrical front, with a two-span block gabled at the front and deep eaves, alongside a slightly set-back lower block to the right, which is gabled at the right end. To the left, there is a portico supported by granite piers with moulded capitals and topped with a hipped slate roof, resembling the portico at Endsleigh House. The cottage has 20th-century windows. The interior has not been inspected.

Harragrove sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,030 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 82% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 81% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 19 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 80% 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.
