Full description
Historic England, 2025, National Heritage List for England 2025 (National Heritage List for England). SDV366287.
A boat house built on a grand scale, probably before the Second World War, with three wide timber double doors opening onto the foreshore of South Pool Creek. The upper balcony and wide cedar-shingle-hung gable end lend the building a distinctly United States colonial character. Robustly built with steel beams, stone supporting walls and a timber roof structure, it combines durability with elegance. The cast iron 'Tortoise' stove on the first floor, once used to heat the space, is an unusual survival. See listing description for full details.
