Description

The building is a kennel constructed with pebbledashed brickwork and a slate roof. It features separate pens and an enclosed feeding walkway on the north side, along with a door located in a re-entrant angle. On the south side, there are three railed exercise enclosures surrounded by tall, round-topped iron railings atop an orthostatic slate wall that is approximately 1 meter high. On the west side, there are two larger dog runs, which may have been added later, enclosed with standard railings set on a low brick wall topped with slate coping.

Local climate

Kennels sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,210 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 93% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 75% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.
