Description

The Tea Shoppe, located on Dunster High Street, is an 18th century building with a red brick front that conceals an earlier structure. It features a moulded stone coping along the parapet, a slate roof, and brick stacks. The building is two storeys high and has three sash windows with glazing bars and exposed frames, along with keys to the first floor openings. To the left of the centre, there is a square-headed door, and a slated pent roof covers the ground floor sash windows and the panelled door. At the rear wing, there is a 17th century two-light window with an ovolo moulded frame.

The Tea Shoppe sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,130 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 88% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 95% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 10 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 90% of listed buildings. Of these, 5 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.
