Description
The Wedge is a mid-to-late 19th-century building, included on the heritage register because of its close relationship to other nearby properties. It is a four-storey structure with a single window and a shaped gabled top. The exterior is constructed of multicoloured stock brickwork. The sash windows have chamfered, gauged brick arches; the first-floor window has a segmental head, while the ground and first-floor windows are three-light designs. The ground floor is relatively low, appearing almost as a basement, and contains an entrance with a modern door and porch. The Wedge (specifically No 3A) forms part of a group with Nos 1 to 8A (consec) and associated forecourt walls.
Local climate
The Wedge 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 99% of listed buildings.
It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 52% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 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.
