Description

Castell is a single-storey building constructed of rubble stone on boulder foundations, with the walls limewashed. The roof is covered with old slates and features gable stacks with weather courses. Each elevation has a boarded door flanked by small 4-pane sash windows. There is also a very small rooflight towards the left end of the roof slope. Some stones around the door project slightly.

Local climate

Castell sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,610 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 11 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 89% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 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.
