Description

Britannia Corner is a pair of terraced houses dating to around 1840. The houses are built of stucco, which has been rendered in later times, with a roof hidden behind a parapet. They are three storeys high and have a two-window frontage. The ground floor features a 20th-century shop front, while the upper floors retain two segmental bay windows with tripartite sash windows of their original design. A decorative cornice runs along the top of the building, and there is a side chimney stack. The interior has not been inspected.

It experiences an average of 15 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 85% of listed buildings. Of these, 7 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.
