Description

Hesketh Hall is a house that features a panel above the door with the date 1594, which has been reused. The current building is likely a remodelling from the 19th century. It is constructed from rubble with slate-hung cladding on the front and north side, while the rear and south side are covered with slobbered render. The roof is made of graduated slate and there is a full-width gabled wing at the back. The house is symmetrical, consisting of two storeys and three bays. The central entrance has a part-glazed door flanked by sash windows on both floors. The dated panel includes a cable-mounted border and the initials R. H., along with a wheatsheaf design. There are rendered chimneys at each end. This site was once home to a mill.

Local climate

Hesketh Hall sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,610 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 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 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.
