Boveridge House

Boveridge House is a country house that has been converted into a school. It was built in the early 19th century, with additions made in 1887 and 1920. The house was commissioned by Henry Brouncher and designed by William Evans of Wimborne. The building features slate and lead roofs that are mostly hidden behind parapets, along with brick stacks that have moulded caps in various locations. There are double plat bands with brick panels located below the window openings. The house is two storeys tall with attics and consists of seven bays, five of which belong to the original structure. The windows are sash style, set in lugged ashlar architraves, with 12 panes below and 9 panes above. The parapet is panelled and includes integral pedimented dormers. A central late 19th-century canted bay features a balustraded parapet and French doors, while there is an open loggia at a right angle to the left. The west facade is adorned with a Greek Doric tetrastyle portico.

Inside, the main rooms are decorated with moulded cornices, panelling, and various enrichments that reflect a mid-18th-century style. Several marble fireplaces, which may have been relocated from other buildings, can be found throughout. The interior also includes a stone staircase with a wrought-iron balustrade and a moulded handrail, an apsidal entrance hall with an Ionic colonnade, and a drawing room from 1920 that features high-quality panelling, a pilastered fireplace, and shell-headed niches.
