Description
The Former Garden Village Club House dates to 1909 and was designed by Runton & Barry for Albert Leopold Reckitt. It is a stucco building with red brick and ashlar dressings, topped with a plain tile roof, two coped ridge stacks, and a central square, domed cupola. The architectural style is Georgian Classical Revival.
The building has a painted plinth and deep modillion eaves, is single-storey, and has an 11-window front. It is arranged in a T-plan. The windows are late 20th-century, double-glazed, replacements. A projecting central gable features a semicircular ashlar portico with steps, a cornice, and two Roman Ionic columns, supporting a 6-panel double door. Above the door is a memorial tablet to George Reckitt. Flanking the portico are windows with moulded surrounds. Above the portico is a moulded eared panel inscribed "Club House." The returns have small oval windows with four keystones, and beyond these are four windows with flat arches and keystones. The left gable has a semicircular bay window with five lights and a leaded half-dome, surmounted by a cartouche with festoons. The right gable has a graduated triple window. There is a single-storey, mid-20th-century addition to the rear.
The building was constructed as part of a development by Garden Village (Hull) Ltd, commissioned by the Reckitt family. It has group value with the Grade II listed houses forming The Oval, which also were part of the garden village development.
