Description

Longlands is a house built around 1820, constructed of ashlar stone with slate roofs. It is a two-storey building with a central section that has five by three bays and a hipped roof. The house features one-storey wings with attics, each consisting of two bays, and the outer bays project forward under gables. There is a first-floor sill band and wide bracketed eaves. The windows are sashed with glazing bars, and some of the returns have painted blind windows. The wings have two eaves bands with windows in between. Most windows are painted, with the outer bays featuring tripartite windows. The entrance includes a porch with columns that lack bases, a frieze, cornice, and blocking course, as well as an overlight with glazing bars and a six-fielded-panel door. The house has two cross-axial stacks. At the rear, there are projecting wings, with the northern wing having four bays. Most windows at the rear are sashed with single glazing bars, and there are several glazed doors and additional cross-axial stacks.

It experiences an average of 24 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 75% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 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.
