Description

This shelter, likely built in the 1920s, is constructed from ashlar stone and features a graduated stone slate roof topped with a tall lead ball finial. It is a small circular structure with an entrance that has an open panel on either side. The door jambs and panel divisions are circular in shape. Inside, the floor is paved with radial stone, and eight radial joists support an octagonal king post, against which the rafters are closely abutted. The rafters are ashlared to create a sweeping effect at the roof eaves. An inscription on the rear wall reads: "In memory of Edward and Mary Temple."

Local climate

Shelter 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 93% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 38 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 73% of listed buildings. Of these, 21 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.
