Building record MDO28359 - Strand Street, Poole

House of two storeys with walls of coursed and squared Purbeck stone rubble was built in the late 16th or early 17th century and largely rebuilt in about 1700. The south wall has a stone plat band of three narrow courses at first floor level; door and window heads on the ground floor have flat arches in stone. At the west end of the frontage is a 19th century doorway; to the east of it is another, now blocked, with chamfered jambs of about 1600 in the lower part, probably originally supporting a stone lintel removed and replaced by a flat arch at a higher level in about 1700. East of the above is a wide blocked window. Other fragments of stone buildings lie to the west. Demolished before 1970
