Description

Forge House is an early 19th-century house located on the south side of the road at St Nicholas at Wade the Length. The building is constructed of brown brick with a plain tiled roof. It is two storeys and an attic, with a gambrel roof featuring a brick dentil eaves cornice, kneelers on the gables, two flat-roofed dormers and stacks positioned at the left and right ends. The fenestration is regular, consisting of two moulded sash windows on each floor; the ground-floor windows are segmental-headed. A central half-glazed and panelled door is topped by a flat hood.

Forge 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 87% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 67% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 8 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 94% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 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.
