The Anchorage The Watch

This is an 18th and later range of adjoining cottages located on Shore Road, Warsash.

No. 58 is constructed of stone rubble with an old tiled roof. It may have originally formed part of a larger building with the adjoining bay of No. 60. It features a central chimney and a doorway with a modern porch, and has two-and-a-half storeys with two dormers. The front has three windows with modern casements and leaded glazing. The rear roof is very low.

Nos. 60 and The Watch are in two parts. The western bay forms part of the structure of No. 62, and the eastern bay may have once been part of No. 58. They have a white roughcast facade and an old tiled roof in two sections, with a central chimney. Two storeys high, the front has two windows with 19th-century casements, cambered head linings, and glazing bars. A central door has an added flat hood supported by brackets.

No. 62 dates back to the 18th century or earlier. It has a white stucco facade, designed to resemble masonry, with a plinth. A central chimney and a central door are notable features. It is two storeys high with two windows on each floor. The windows are sashes with late 19th-century glazing and segmental arches.

Nos. 64 and 66 also date to the 18th century or earlier. They have a white stucco facade that imitates masonry, a band at the eaves, and an old tiled roof. The building is one-and-a-half storeys, with two gabled dormers breaking through the eaves. It has two windows on the ground floor with sashes, boxed frames, and late 19th-century glazing. A pair of centre doors have moulded architraves, topped by a later flat hood over modern doors.

Nos. 68, 70, and 72 form a single building, originally from the earlier 19th century and altered later. The exterior is primarily red brick (for No. 72), with the rest painted brick. The façade of No. 68 is slightly advanced. It has wide eaves and an old tiled roof, with a large, off-centre stack above the door to No. 68. There is one window on each floor with late 19th-century glazing, and Nos. 68 and 70 each have one modern dormer.

Nos. 58 to 72 (even) and The Watch House form a notable group.
