Description

Vale Lodge is an early 19th-century detached house, altered since its original construction. It is built of stucco, with an enriched band at first-floor level, and has a hipped, slated roof. The house presents a three-window facade. A Greek Doric portico in antis features a bucrania frieze; the doorway has double-panelled doors and a narrow overlight. The windows are a mix of recessed sash and casement types, with the first floor windows featuring traceried lights and a wrought-iron balcony above the portico. The interior has not been inspected. The house was formerly the home of Edgar Wallace, a writer.

Local climate

Vale Lodge 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 98% of listed buildings.

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