Parkstone: Bob Hann House
I know nothing about this building, really. The stonework above the door features the words 'Council Building' and there is modern signage outside, recognisably that of Poole Council but with wording removed so one does not know its former function. It is listed simply as a council 'depot' in the 1975 Kelly's Directory of the town.
