(75) King John's House, Church Street, Romsey : Grade I (and GAM).
C13 with later alterations. Part of a C13 merchants' establishment
comprising first floor hall over undercroft. The building was
repaired by the Hampshire Buildings Preservation Trust in the late
1970s and is now cared for by a local Charitable Trust who is
continuing to restore the medieval fabric and open the building to
the public on a regular basis. (The Trustees of King John's House
and Tudor Cottage)

two medieval windows. Estimated cost of eligible works £8,390.00

(76) The Well Head, Ashley : Grade II. C17. (Dr N Potter,
Chairman Ashley Parish Meeting)
The C17 well-house was of timber framed construction with thatched
roof. It was severely damaged by fire last year, and the remains
were carefully dismantled and put into store. The Parish has decided
that it would like to see the building reconstructed as it was an
important feature in this small rural hamlet. None of the Local
Authorities have claimed ownership so the Parish has undertaken the
task of guaranteeing restoration itself with the assistance of
private donations and grant aid. The timber frame will hopefully be
reconstructed as part of a course on the repair of timber framed
buildings to be run by the Historic Buildings Bureau and RICS this
summer. However costs will be incurred in the provision of materials
and specialist labour at a figure of approximately £3,800.00
(including VAT). As the building was such a big feature in the
hamlet and the local community is motivated to reconstruct it through
fund raising, I recommend that a grant of up to £1,900.00 (50%) be
offered on condition that:
(i) all works are carried out to the agreed
specification.

(Mr D C F Steel)
Most of the work is internal refurbishment and not repairs to the
historic fabric. The only eligible work is the repair of the dormer
window, which had been carried out before a Conservation Officer
could inspect it, and repointing of the elevation, which has not been
carried out on the advice of the Historic Buildings Bureau and others
as it was considered unnecessary, therefore it is not recommended
that a grant be made in this instance.
