Description

Minafon is a two-storey, double-fronted house built from whitewashed rubble stone, featuring a steep hipped roof and large stone stacks at the left end. The front is offset to the right and includes two pairs of 4-pane casement windows on each floor. The upper windows are positioned under the eaves, while the lower windows and the door, which is ledged, are located between them and have cambered brick heads. The end walls and rear of the building are windowless, with the rear having unusually rounded corners, which may suggest the presence of cob-walled construction. There is an added brick lean-to with a chimney at the rear and a corrugated iron lean-to on the left end wall.

Local climate

Minafon sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,270 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 93% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 92% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 26 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 72% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
