Description

No 45, also known as the YWCA, is an early 19th century house built of grey gault brick. It is now part of the YWCA and is connected to No 43 by a 20th century grey brick wing. The building has two storeys and features a four-window range. The first-storey windows are double-hung sashes with glazing bars, set in plain reveals and topped with stucco lintels on brackets. The ground storey includes a stone three-light bay window. The entrance has a four-panel door with a segmental-headed plain fanlight and a moulded stucco architrave. A moulded stucco band runs along the level of the first-storey window sills. The roof is covered with slate. This building is part of a group that includes Nos 43 to 47 (odd).

Local climate

Ywca 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 63% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 22 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 77% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.
