Description

Watergate is a house dating from the mid-19th century, constructed from snecked local slate stone rubble with a rag slate roof featuring gable ends and brick end stacks. The building has a double depth plan, with the entrance likely located at the rear, as the front entrance has been blocked and replaced with a small niche. The front elevation is symmetrical with three windows, showcasing dressed stone segmental arches and key blocks above the ground and first floor openings. The ground floor features 16-pane sash windows on either side of a central niche with a round-headed arched opening, while the first floor has three slightly smaller 16-pane hornless sashes. The interior has not been inspected.

Watergate sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,000 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 80% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 89% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 10 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 90% 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.
