Built and extended as the Poor House, now four dwellings; together with
outbuildings. 1725, late C18, with C20 alterations. Brick walls of English
bond, rubbed flat arches; part painted brickwork of Flemish Garden Wall
bond, part with C20 roughcast. Tile roof with stepped brick eaves, flat-
roofed dormers. The original south-west front (No. 4) is symmetrical,
with a projecting centrepiece of two storeys, 2:1:2 windows. The features
are of stone; coupled mullioned windows with chamfered reveals, and
C20 metal casements, doorway with a broken pediment, console brackets,
architrave and a C20 oak door. The central lights are small casements
and between these and the doorway is a stone plaque, with arched head,
inscribed "This House Erected by this Parish of Ringwood 1725". To the
north of the oldest part there is an extension of similar size, (Nos.
2 and 3) but the elevation has been much altered, with three upper
lights (the middle and original C18 leaded casement in a wood frame),
three ground floor smaller casements and two C20 doorways; the rear
elevation also has three original upper windows. The north end comprises
a further extension (No. 1) of 1:2 storeys, 2:2 windows, painted brick
walls of Flemish Garden Wall bond, with cambered openings (the upper
blank), and a lower pitched slate roof (hipped to the two storeyed
section). The interior retains most of its original timber framed struct-
ure, with verticals to each bay and two to each cross section, the oak
framing being chamfered; there is also a massive chimney breast to the
north side of the oldest unit. Associated with the main building are
two small single-storeyed utility blocks, set back from the roadway,
with walls of brick and stucco, and slate roofs.
