Description

Kenmore is an 18th-century building located on the west side of Church Street. It features a gable end facing the street and consists of two storeys and an attic. The exterior is finished in stucco, topped with a slate roof. The building has sash windows with glazing bars, including one window on the second floor and two on the first floor. On the ground floor, there is a doorway with a half-glazed door at the left end, accompanied by a three-light window to its right, both situated under a common fascia. At the right end of the ground floor, there is another doorway framed by pilasters, an entablature, and a moulded hood, leading to a six-panelled door, of which the top four panels are glazed. Kenmore, along with Tudor House Hotel and Nos 6 to 12 on Church Street, forms a group, with the north front of the Guildhall providing a visual stop at the south end of this group.

Kenmore receives an average of 760 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 66% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 74% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 19 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 81% of listed buildings. Of these, 6 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.
