Description

The Jolly Brewer is a building featuring a three-window front made of pebbledash, with one and two-storey extensions set back on either side. It has a later lean-to porch at the center and an adjoining veranda. The roofs are hipped and covered with slate, complete with ridge cresting and pebbledash chimney stacks. The sash windows, mostly 12-pane and some horned, have architraves. To the left of the porch, there is a splayed bay with a dentil cornice. The altered veranda on the right is supported by cast iron columns with thin foliage spandrels.

The left end has a splayed bay, and there are smaller 12-pane sash windows at the rear, along with a cross range to the right. A modern single-storey extension to the right is not considered of special interest.

The Jolly Brewer sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,190 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 95% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 18 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 83% of listed buildings. Of these, 6 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.
