9.15 In the mid 1990s the site now containing The Old Dairy and The River Barn on Throop Road (with two derelict barns) was redeveloped. Prior to conversion to a dwelling The Old Dairy was roofless with basically only the brick shell intact. Today The Old Dairy has a pitched slate roof and a large extension to one side. The second barn at this site (now The River Barn) with its full height central opening to the front and rear was perhaps built as a threshing barn. Both properties relate to the former agricultural landscape of Holdenhurst and are still legible as former barns. Twentieth Century Buildings: 1900-1945 9.17 Elm Cottages, Nos. 1-4 Holdenhurst Village, date from around 1914 and feature pebbledash walling, slate roofs, canopies supported on decorative brackets, timber doors and casement windows and front gardens with low boundary treatment. The cottages are small scale and sit comfortably adjacent to the village green. Although they have lost a chimney stack and have some modest rear extensions this has not seriously eroded their historic form, and their appearance from the village green is little altered since built. The River Barn 9.16 Manor Farm Barn within Manor Farmyard incorporates two nineteenth century barns linked by a late twentieth century structure. Despite alteration through conversion to a dwellinghouse, the building is classified as positive as the former agricultural buildings are clearly recognisable through their scale, design and materials. Manor Farm Barn Elm Cottages 9.18 Springfield and Stockwell Cottage on Throop Road are a pair of semidetached dwellings dating from the early 1920s. The properties have a similar appearance to the ‘Homes for Heroes’ dwellings on Muscliff Lane in Bournemouth. The dwellings reflect the vernacular style of architecture with timber weather boarding to the gables, stepped corbels in brick to support the ends of the steep terracotta tiled roofs and the whitewashed brick walls. Both properties have unsympathetic PVCu windows however, this does not detract from the overall appearance of the buildings and the cottages still retain a wealth of original features such as 52 Holdenhurst Village Conservation Area Appraisal - March 2014
the huge central chimney stack and sweeping cat-slide roof to the front porches. Stockwell (left) and Springfield (right) 9.19 South Lodge sits on Holdenhurst Village Road at the end of the long driveway to Hurn Court. The property dates from the 1920s and is built in the Arts and Crafts style with prominent chimney stacks, feature catslide roof over the entrance, overhanging eaves and gables with decorative timber framing. Although the property has lost its original timber framed windows to PVCu replacements the property clearly reflects vernacular architectural detailing and blends in seamlessly in its sylvan setting. The contribution of this property is also noted in paragraph 10.13. South Lodge 9.20 The Old Billiard Room dates from the 1920s and although built for a utilitarian purpose it has the appearance of a cottage due to its small scale. Its neat front garden bordered by a hedge and timber gate reinforces its cottage setting. The property possesses architectural features used in the early twentieth century such as the use of pebbledash render to the external walls, chimney stacks, timber front door and timber casement windows. The building was originally the parish hall and is modest in scale; however, its conversion to a dwelling involved a rear addition to double the accommodation. Despite the extension the single storey nature of the building ensures the Old Billiard Room sits comfortably in its setting. Old Billiard Room 9.21 The Village Hall dates from the 1930s and is reflective of the Modernist style of architecture with its attractive Art Deco porch and arched window to the gable. The building is of a scale and form that is reflective of buildings within the Conservation Area and the function of the building contributes to the village character. Despite the unfortunate plastic windows and concrete roof tiles the building makes an important contribution to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area.
