Description

Ivy House is an early 19th-century small farmhouse or cottage featuring a two-storey, two-window design constructed from white-painted rubble masonry. It has a slate roof with a tile ridge and rendered end-chimneys. The building showcases generous eaves and verge overhangs, with bargeboards extending outside the chimneys. A small open-fronted porch with a slate roof and finial adds to its charm. The front elevation includes sash windows in exposed frames, with nine panes in the upper windows and four panes in the lower windows. The upper windows are designed as unequal-sashes without horns.

Local climate

Ivy House sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,390 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 97% 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 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% 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.
