Phillips Memorial Cloister

The Phillips Memorial Cloister is a memorial structure built in 1913 by H. Thackeray Turner, with alterations made around 1965 and 1986. It is constructed from purplish brick in Flemish bond and timber, topped with plain tile roofs. The cloister is rectangular in shape, featuring an arcaded wall on the east side, cloisters on the north and west sides, and an open timber pergola on the south side, which replaced a former cloister in approximately 1965.

On the exterior, the west side has a flight of brick steps leading down to a central archway, which features tile jambs and a cambered timber lintel, along with stepped dentilled eaves. The north side includes raking buttresses and stepped dentilled eaves. The east side has nine bays with a seven-bay segmental-arched arcade that includes a tile plinth, imposts, and hoodmoulds. The four outer arches are open, while the three inner bays are blind, featuring a central bench seat in a tile-hung gabled porch, with a raised segmental-headed panel above. The outer bays, which are the ends of the cloister ranges, are gabled and have round-arched vents, topped with gabled tile coping.

Inside, the cloistered sides are supported by timber posts that hold up gabled roofs. The central bay of the east wall's arcade features a commemorative ashlar plaque with a decorative rose border and a coat of arms at the top. Below it is a semicircular former fountain, now filled with earth, and a four-step podium made of stone setts. The courtyard is paved with stone setts arranged in eight sections and has a raised octagonal pool in the center, which was restored in 2012 to commemorate the centenary of the sinking of the Titanic. The cloister was built on the site of the old village animal pound in memory of J G Phillips of Godalming, who served as the chief wireless telegraphist on the SS Titanic and continued to send distress signals as the ship sank in 1912.
