Description

Stanley House, located at No 2 Bene't Street, is an early 19th-century building. It stands four storeys tall and is constructed of grey gault brick, featuring a parapet. The façade has four windows, some of which do not have glazing bars. The ground floor has a modern shop front. While it fits well with the overall character of the street, it is not particularly distinguished on its own. Stanley House, along with Nos 2 to 6 (consecutive), and Nos 8 and 9, forms a group of buildings of collective interest.

Local climate

Stanley House sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 96% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 82% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 57% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 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.
