Poole Hall

[9][10] Antiques expert Paul Hayes described the collection as including "dozens of teas-maids, lamp stands, mannequins, toy robots, an old pinball machine and ... a stag's head".

[1][12] The four-bay drawing room has a shallow tunnel-vaulted ceiling, panelled in rectangles and octagons and decorated with foliage scrolls, and a frieze with gilt palmettes.

[1][10] Pevsner described the ceiling as "elegant",[1] and Marcus Binney compares the room with Robert Adam's library at Kenwood House, Hampstead Heath.

[6] The dining room has a shallow alcove at the north side, flanked by pilasters, with a shell-shaped ceiling and a scrollwork frieze.

[1][11] The main staircase is cantilevered and follows all four walls of the stair hall; it has limestone steps, a balustrade with cast-iron scrollwork and a mahogany handrail.

[5][10][13] The hall's service areas are well preserved, and contain old cooking ranges, meat hooks and a foothole ladder to the attics.

[14] The grounds contain a walled garden, yew hedge and an L-shaped ornamental pond, possibly the remains of a moat to the earlier building.

[6][10] To the north of the hall stands a two-storey, timber-framed barn, dating from the late 17th century, which is listed at grade II.
