Poole House

Poole House is a house located on Poole Street in Great Yeldham, originally listed as Pool House. It dates from the 17th century and early 19th century. The building is timber framed and plastered, with a roof made of handmade red clay tiles and slates. It consists of two parts: the first is a 17th-century house in an L-plan shape, featuring wings that extend to the north and west, along with two extensions to the west, all covered with tiles. The second part is an early 19th-century house to the south, which has a low-pitched hipped roof made of slate.

The house has two storeys. On the east elevation, there is a half-glazed door in a porch supported by slender columns and topped with a flat roof, dating from around 1900. This elevation also features one double-hung sash window with 12 lights and two tripartite double-hung sash windows with configurations of 4-12-4 lights, all from the early 19th century. On the first floor, there are two similar sash windows and two similar tripartite windows.

Inside the northern part of the house, there are jowled posts and chamfered beams with lamb's tongue stops. The southern part contains an original staircase with stick balusters, along with other original internal features.
