Description

The Quay is a quay wall made of large blocks of coursed dressed stone, topped with coping. It runs approximately 100 meters from northwest to southeast. At the southeast end, a return section has been hidden due to an extension of the quay in 2005. At the northwest end, the return features stone steps with a later iron handrail, and the quay continues for another 10 meters before meeting a 20th-century concrete terraced sea wall. Along the quay, there are six later hollow cast-iron mooring posts filled with concrete, two of which are stamped 'Stanton H 1936'. Additionally, there are two iron mooring rings on the coping course.

Local climate

The Quay sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,100 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 87% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 76% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 51% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.
