Grade II listed buildings in Southampton: D–L
In total there are 317[1] listed buildings in the city of Southampton, of which 14 are Grade I, 20 are Grade II* and the remainder Grade II.
In England, a building or structure is defined as "listed" when it is placed on a statutory register of buildings of "special architectural or historic interest" by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, a Government department, in accordance with the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.[2] English Heritage, a non-departmental public body, acts as an agency of this department to administer the process and advise the department on relevant issues.[3] There are three grades of listing status. The Grade II designation is the lowest, and is used for "nationally important buildings of special interest".[4] Grade II* is used for "particularly important buildings of more than special interest", while Grade I (defined as being of "exceptional interest" and greater than national importance), is the highest of the three grades.[4]
This list summarises 42 Grade II-listed buildings and structures whose names begin with D to L. Numbered buildings with no individual name are listed by the name of the street on which they stand.

In about 1494, the building was converted into a public house by the brewer Rowland Johnson who named it the "Bere House". By 1771, the pub had been named the "Shipwrights Arms"[11] with the present name being adopted after the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. The building was again damaged during the blitz of 1940 with the top floor being completely destroyed,[12][13] but was restored in 1962/63.[14][15] The main building is three storeys with exposed square framed timber-framing with plaster infill on a stone base.

The four windows are now blank; the windows and doorcase have Gibbs surrounds. In 2001, the property was sold to developers; at this time the council's archaeological department recorded the building’s condition before it was refurbished as a casino and restaurant. They reported that "the internal arrangements and decoration are much as built. It was richly decorated, and included moulded plaster panels of famous ships and sea battles. Some of the fittings came from the liner Majestic".[42] The casino is now owned by the Genting Group and trades as "Maxim’s Casino".[44] | [41] | [42] | |

This was the first public drinking fountain installed in Southampton. It was erected at the instigation of the local Unitarian Church minister, Edmund Kell, and funded by a wealthy benefactor, Charles Pierre Melly from Liverpool.[59] Kell provided the fountain in an attempt to curb "the town's drunkenness and disorder" by providing an alternative source of refreshment other than alcohol.[59] Originally installed at the corner of Marsh Lane, East Street and St Mary Street, the fountain was disconnected from the water supply in 1939 and relocated in 1959 to make way for road improvements. The fountain comprises a tapering square pillar of rusticated ashlar with pediments on all four sides, surmounted by a ball finial. There are stone seats at the base on all four sides and two small iron lions' head masks on one face. | [69] | [70] | |
The Junction Inn | mid 19th century | SU4309413644 50°55′15″N 1°23′18″W / 50.9207°N 1.3883°W |
This public house stands on the corner of Priory Road and Adelaide Road, near St. Denys railway station which is at the junction between the London to Weymouth mainline and the Portsmouth line. It was built on an L-shape plan, although a single-storey bar addition was later built in the angle. The southern front has three sash windows on the first floor, beneath a parapet concealing the slate hipped roof. On the ground floor, there is a large canted bay window on the left and a central round-headed doorway with canopy; to the right, there is an elliptically arched bar window with foiled tracery. The triangular single-storey corner section has a balustrade on the flat roof. The arched windows continue through and into the eastern front and another single-storey extension with a balustrade. Many of the interior fittings remained, including an elaborate bar back and curved counter and fireplace.[60] The pub was severely damaged in a fire in February 2012.[61] | [71] | [72] | |
King George V Graving Dock | 1933–1934 | SU3935412388 50°54′35″N 1°26′30″W / 50.9096°N 1.4416°W |
Designed by F.E. Wentworth-Shields, at the time of construction this was the largest graving dock in the world, a status it retained for nearly thirty years. It was taken out of service in 2005 and is now used as a "wet dock". The dock is 1,200 ft. long, 135 ft. wide and over 50 ft. deep and was capable of holding 58,000,000 gallons of water. It has vertical sides with stepped "altars" at the base; at 200 ft. intervals, there are vertical buttresses projecting from the sides of the dock to prevent the bilge keels of vessels striking the base of the walls. | [73] | [74] | |
King George V Graving Dock – pumping station | 1933–1934 | SU3934112241 50°54′30″N 1°26′30″W / 50.9083°N 1.4418°W |
This is a rectangular block building, with a half-hipped roof, built of red brick with stone dressing in the "inter-war classical revival style suggesting a temple". The building has a stone cornice and a second stone band above the windows, which are separated by brick pilasters. The original west bay, which housed an office, has been demolished. Internally, the pumphouse walls are lined with cream and green tiles on the lower part. A wooden staircase leads to a mezzanine balcony with a wooden balustrade. In the main, southern part of the building, there are the four pumps which pumped water out of the dock. | [75] | [76] | |
Lankesters Vault | ca. 1300 | SU4200211346 50°54′00″N 1°24′15″W / 50.9001°N 1.4041°W |
This long vault has crossed ribs and windows to the street. Probably built to store wine, it was used during the Second World War as an air-raid shelter. The property above was destroyed during the Blitz, but the occupants of the vault survived.[62] It is now used for temporary art installations.[63][64] | [77] | [78] | |
Lansdowne House | late 18th century | SU4191811469 50°54′04″N 1°24′19″W / 50.9012°N 1.4053°W |
This three-storey brick building stands in Castle Lane, opposite the former County Court. It was built for Gorges Foyle, Esq. from whom it was purchased by the Marquess of Lansdowne in 1805. Following Lansdowne's death, his widow Mary Arabelle lived in the house until about 1818. It remained in the family until 1834, since when it has been used as offices, mainly until recently for solicitors.[65] Built of plum coloured brick, the property has grey brick stringcourses between the floors and above the second floor windows, serving as a cornice. Above the cornice is a stucco parapet concealing the roof. The property has six sash windows on each of the upper floors; on the ground floor, the door is left of centre with a doorcase of engaged Doric columns and a broken pediment over a semi-circular fanlight. Above the door, there is an original fire insurance plaque.[65]
In the early twentieth century, the adjacent property was used as offices for Randall, Sloper & Co., mineral water manufacturers. Traces of their name are still visible on the moulding above the ground floor windows.[65] |

6 Little Oak Road | ca. 1830 | SU4172315947 50°56′29″N 1°24′27″W / 50.9415°N 1.4075°W |
This thatched cottage is situated close to the junction of Winchester Road and The Avenue, but is not clearly visible from the highway. Built in the "Cottage orné" style, it is mainly two storeys high and built of painted brick. The main, eastern elevation has fretted bargeboards and double pointed-head casement windows to the first floor. On the ground floor, there is a pair of four-light canted bay windows with thatched roofs and gothic heads separated by a round-headed doorcase under a thatched porch, which is probably a later addition. There is a later single-storey extension to the right built in similar style. The western elevation is plainer, with three casement windows to the first floor and a projecting porch with half-columns. | [81] | [82] | |
77 London Road | ca. 1830 | SU4203912763 50°54′46″N 1°24′12″W / 50.9128°N 1.4034°W |
This building, originally No. 1 Carlton Crescent, stands at the junction with London Road. The building is three storeys high in white stucco; parts of the ground floor are rusticated. A cornice conceals the roof; beneath the cornice is a blocking course. The Carlton Crescent elevation has three windows at each floor, with a lower two window wing at an angle to the left. The ground floor windows have round-headed openings. On London Road, there is a three-window segmental bow on the first floor with a balcony above. The main entrance door is on the corner of the building with three arcaded plate glass windows on each side. On the London Road elevation, there is a small single-storey extension with a round-headed window. The property, which formed the lead into Carlton Crescent was occupied by a branch of National Westminster Bank; it is now occupied by Richer Sounds.[66] | [83] | [84] |
