Description

The Wharf House is a house dating from the late 18th century, originally built as an inn on the bank of the canal. It is constructed from rubble stone, with some parts colourwashed, and features an old tile roof with brick chimneys on either side. The building has two storeys facing the canal and three storeys on the lower ground to the north, with an attic in the roof. The south front has three bays, with four-pane wide upper floor sash windows and altered sashes flanking a central door on the ground floor. There are two-light attic windows in the gables, and the north front has irregular openings. A shallow roofed lean-to is attached to the west gable.

The Wharf House sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 86% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 86% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
