Description

The Square is an L-shaped terrace of five houses built in the early 19th century. The buildings are two storeys high, constructed of red brick with black glazed pantiles on hipped roofs. There are three internal chimney stacks, one featuring four barrel-shafts made of ornate brick. The ground storey has small-paned cross windows, while the upper storey features small-paned two-light casement windows, all set in deep reveals with slightly arched heads in the brickwork. The doors are half-glazed and date from the 20th century, complemented by 19th-century rectangular fanlights and small projecting porch roofs, with alternating flat and open pediments. On the west gable wall, there is a small straight-sided ground storey bay with a lean-to tiled roof, which includes a three-light small-paned window with a transom, and a recessed blank panel on the upper storey. This terrace is included for its group value.

Local climate

The Square 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 99% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 62% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
