Selected
a wing (at right-angles)(to it)
That's what it means alright — but it's a sort of odd concept which we don't usually express quite like this in EN. I think we'd probably say something more like 'an L-shaped building'
I don't think the absence of 'vers' is significant — could be just an error, though I suppose it might mean that this particular building actually fronts onto rue AAA, instead of just heading vaguely in that direction; though what follows would seem to contradict that. Impossible really to know without more context.

rearward wing (extending towards)
Presumably you have the exact address and could GoogleEarth it to see exactly how the building is shaped. It sounds like two buildings forming more or less a hollow square or rectangle around a courtyard.
Whether or not the rearward wing is actually at right angles to the frontages we know not.
"A rearward wing of the main block was once the hall and its inward facing outside elevation has fine carved oak window framing extending through both floors with cusping to the window lights"
https://www.exmoorher.co.uk/Designation/DEM3050
"The main rear elevation, 10m deep from the frontage, would have a 8m long two storey rearward wing set off the eastern 5.7m section and off which a 4.4m long single storey structure would be added"
