Description

The Red Lion is a public house that has undergone 19th-century alterations to an older building. The main block, located to the right, is constructed of whitewashed brick and features toothed brick eaves, a slate roof, and flanking brick chimneys. It is two storeys high with two bays. The 19th-century windows are three-light casements, with leaded glass on the ground floor to the right and the outer lights of the first-floor windows. There is a central door.

To the left, the older bay is made of a combination of rubble stone, brick, and render, all whitewashed, and it conceals remnants of a timber frame. This section has a tiled roof that is half-hipped to the left. The windows here are barred 19th-century casements, with a two-light window on the ground floor to the left and a three-light window on the first floor. There is also a small window on the ground floor to the right.

Local climate

The Red Lion sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 730 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 77% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 78% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 59% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
