What is recorded here
Ringwood House in Ringwood presents a modest bungalow face, then hides two storeys behind it. It’s the house equivalent of saying, ‘We had a few people round, ’ when there’s a wedding band and somebody’s uncle still asleep in the back.
Detached T-plan former country house comprising five-bay single-storey house to front, c.1800, and four-bay two-storey parallel range behind with two-storey rere projection, c.1830. Roughcast rendered walls. Timber sash windows, some replacements, and timber casement windows. Timber panelled door with simple radial fanlight. Pitched slate roof with raised chimney stacks to front. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimney stacks to rere. uPVC conservatories to west. Stable yard with archway and converted outbuildings to south. Cast-iron water pump and granite trough in yard.
An unusual, distinctive house which preserves many original features, and is a fine example of the expansion of a prosperous domestic property.
