Description

This is a house of the 19th century fronting an earlier building, located at 55 to 57 New Street. The front facade is constructed of gault brick in a Flemish bond, and extends two storeys with attics. It has a five-window range, three dormers set into a mansard roof, a parapet with coping, and a string course that projects at eaves level. Two projecting bays have pedimented gables. A central stone Doric portico features two fluted square columns and two flanking pilasters. The windows are predominantly 3 and 6-paned sashes, with one pair of 8-paned sashes at the north end. There are two small street doors, each with a wooden case and flat hood, located at either end of the frontage.

Local climate

Maynetrees 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 98% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 76% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 24 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 74% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
