Description

Ivy House Sluice is an early to mid-19th century small square building made of stock brick. It features an alternating brick cornice and a low-pitched pyramidal slated roof. The doorway on the south side has a gauged round brick arch. On the east and west sides, there are segmental brick arches over the New River, which flows beneath the building. Round-arched blank recesses are present on all sides except the south wall. Inside, the original manually-operated sluice gate machinery is still in working order.

It experiences an average of 29 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.
