Description
Dolphin House is a 17th-century, two-storey frame house located on the south side of Bursledon High Street. It features a prominent two-storey porch that projects from the front, with one window on each side. The west side of the building has a plain and lower wing designed in a simple Art Nouveau style. The roof is covered with red tiles and has a grouped central stack. The walls are roughcast, and the upper part of the porch displays an exposed frame with brick nogging. The open ground floor of the porch is supported by a low brick wall. On the west side, there is a two-storey bay window, which is gabled above and has an exposed frame with brick infill. The house has casement windows, with one dormer on the east side and two dormers at the rear above the lower eaves. An open stone-flagged forecourt is situated between the house and old buttressed walls.
