Description

Miteside is a house, likely built in the mid-19th century, which was originally an extension of a cottage but is now a separate dwelling. The exterior is pebble-dashed and sits on a chamfered plinth, featuring rusticated quoins and an eaves band. It has a cast-iron gutter with applied lions' heads. The roof is hipped and covered with graduated slate, with rendered chimneys at each end. The house is symmetrical, with two storeys and three bays. There is a part-glazed door located in a central porch that is semicircular in plan and has Greek detailing. On either side of the door are sash windows, and there are three additional sash windows above, all featuring glazing bars set in stone surrounds. The adjoining cottage and outbuildings are not of interest.

Local climate

Miteside sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,590 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 99% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 99% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 59% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 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.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
