Description

Ackroyd Square is a row of cottages located to the rear of No 63 to 75 (odd) Highgate Road in Clayton Heights, dating from around 1800 to 1830. These two-storey cottages are constructed from sandstone brick and feature stone slate roofs. They have two-light square mullion windows, although some of these windows have been altered. The doorways have squared jambs. This row of cottages is included for its group value in the core of Old Dolphin Hamlet.

Ackroyd Square sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 970 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 75% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 69% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 46 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 88% of listed buildings. Of these, 26 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.
