Description

Sunny Vale is a cottage, likely built in the 18th century, with some later alterations. It features limewashed stone rubble walls and a graduated greenslate roof. The building has two storeys and includes three windows, which are sashes with glazing bars. To the left, there is a part-glazed six-panelled door set in a recessed opening. A two-stage chimney is shared with the Post Office on the right-hand party wall.

Local climate

Sunny Vale sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,440 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 98% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 97% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 51% 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.
