Description
Pound is possibly an early 19th-century structure that has undergone later alterations. It is built from mixed stone rubble and has a roughly semicircular shape with a straight side to the north. The walls are approximately 1.5 to 2 meters high, and the curved sections mostly feature triangular copings. The straight wall rises at its eastern end, where a small building has been demolished. The entrance gateway, located on the south-west side, includes a stone lintel.
Local climate
Pound sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,650 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 18 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 82% of listed buildings. Of these, 7 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.
