Description

The boat house, located approximately 250 metres southeast of Cloverley Hall, dates from around 1870 and is possibly designed by William Eden Nesfield. It features a timber frame set on a brick plinth, with both vertical and horizontal matchboarding and a slate roof. The barge boards are pierced and scalloped, adorned with finials and pendants. The east end has two elliptical-arched openings for boats, each fitted with a pair of wooden gates. The west end includes two lozenge-shaped openings and an off-centre matchboarded door to the right.

Inside, the boat house has a three-bay roof supported by arched-braced collar trusses with bolted V-struts. There are pairs of purlins with shaped ends visible from the outside. The interior is divided into two boat bays by a central brick pier, featuring a tiled walkway and decorative wooden balustrading with curved braces. The southern boat bay is shorter and includes a former store room at its west end. Cloverley Hall, built between 1865 and 1870 to Nesfield's designs, may have inspired the boat house's construction. The structure is situated on the northwest bank of Cloverley Pool, an ornamental lake within the parkland surrounding Cloverley Hall.
