Description
The Paragon, located at 57 Petersham Road, is a building dating from around 1720. It stands three storeys tall with a basement and features a parapeted front with three windows on each floor. The exterior is made of brown brick with red dressings. The entrance has a doorcase with a console-bracketed cornice hood. The windows are square gauged headed sash windows with flush frames. Although the interiors have not been seen, it is noted that the staircase and panelling are apparently still intact.
Local climate
The Paragon sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 90% of listed buildings.
It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 64% 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.
