Description

Angles Theatre was built as a theatre in 1793. It is constructed from local brown brick and features a hipped slate roof. A modern 20th-century lean-to connects the theatre building to the northeast boundary wall. The structure has two storeys and a basement. The gable facing southeast includes one large eight-paned window and a stage door entrance with a boarded door that is accessed by steps. There is a boarded basement door set in a segmental brick arch. Metal plates remain in place, indicating the positions of scenery. The 18th-century boundary wall has a stone plaque facing the passageway, stating that it replaces an earlier wall to the Castle.

Local climate

Angles Theatre sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 88% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 90% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 66% 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.
