Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Moxey and Webb Ltd to undertake historic building recording of the property at 106 Panorama Road, Sandbanks, Poole, Dorset, centred on National Grid Reference 403548, 087343, in advance of proposed redevelopment. The work was carried out in response to a planning condition (14) requested by Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council under application APP/24/00640/F, which relates to the demolition of the existing dwelling and construction of a replacement dwelling. The purpose of the exercise was to create a permanent record of the existing building prior to its demolition, in accordance with the guidance set out in the document: Understanding Historic Buildings: A Guide to Good Recording Practice (Historic England, 2016). The building, an early 20th-century two-storey detached dwelling with a hipped slate roof and dormer windows, occupies a waterfront plot overlooking Poole Harbour at the north-west extent of Panorama Road. The surrounding grounds contain a disused swimming pool, a timber boathouse, and two outbuildings. The dwelling retains evidence of phased development and later additions, including a single-storey west extension and a modern timber carport attached to the eastern elevation. The Level 1 historic building record comprises a written description and photographic survey, documenting the building's form, materials, and setting for future research and public record.
