The Studio

The Studio is an art school that has been converted into a house, dated 1894, with 20th-century alterations. It was built for Arthur Flower and features red brick construction with a pantile roof.

The building is two storeys high with a dormer attic and has a one-window gabled front facing the street. The upper storeys are jettied and adorned with decorative panels of framing that include arches and tension braces. This structure is designed in the Vernacular Revival style. To the right, there is a half-glazed door set under a four-centred arch, and to the left, a four-light casement window. On the first floor, there is a bowed six-light mullioned window.

A bressumer on the first floor is carved with strapwork and features the inscription 'Southwold School of Industrial Art' from 1999, which is a faithful reproduction of the original inscription from 1894 that was removed around 1960. The attic bressumer is also carved in relief and dated 1894. The gable is finished with split scalloped bargeboards. High parapet walls on both sides conceal flat-topped dormers fitted with 20th-century casements. All windows, except for those in the dormers, have square latticed lights. The interior has not been inspected.
