Description

Nos 3 and 5 Cecil Square are two-storey buildings dating from around 1769. They are constructed of red brick and feature a parapet. Each building has four sash windows, although the glazing bars are missing. The shop fronts date from the 19th century. These buildings were intentionally kept to two storeys to preserve the sea view for the Georgian Assembly Rooms that were formerly located opposite. Nos 1 to 5 (odd) and Nos 6 to 15 (consecutive) form a group.

Local climate

3 and 5, Cecil Square 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.

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.
