Company information

Property information

Poole Custom house was built in 1781 in Mid Georgian style. It was destroyed by fire in 1813 and replaced exactly as originally built. The original building was itself a rebuilding of the late 18th century Red Lion Coffee House. The striking entrance steps were copied from the Guildhall. The Custom House is part of a group of buildings that are all typical of an old quayside setting including the Town Cellar and Harbour Office.

Neighbourhood information

Amble around the narrow streets and alleys of Poole’s old town and drop into the Waterfront Museum, before heading off for a wander along the Quay, a hive of boating activity. You can sit outside one of the many cafés and pubs that line the waterfront and watch the smart Sunseeker yachts mingle with the old fishing boats.
