HISTORICAL CLAREMONT II Circa 1865
CLAREMONT II - HISTORY
Designed and commissioned by Mr John Panton, a merchant already living in Ipswich, Claremont II was built in 1865. John and his wife, Isabella, built Claremont (Milford St) but forced into selling this in 1863, built his second Claremont (also known in the history books as Clairmont).
A second history is that this residence was built for his daughter as a wedding present, but it does seem clear that both John and Isabella lived in the residence until their deaths.
Claremont II is significant as an example of one of the earliest, substantial homes in Ipswich constructed by one of the pioneering business identifies of the city and for its connection to the earlier Claremont. The history of inner Ipswich can be explored through Claremont's early history, the 1920s conversion to multiple occupancy, the subdivision of its grounds and gardens for housing development and its return in recent years to a grand home through the removal of the post-war house has been inserted into the garden.
CLAREMONT II - THE RESTORATION
The purchasing of the house in front of the original residence in 2007 and having this removed gave the owners the ability to restore the house to its original grandeur.
Much research was undertaken to ensure that all work completed would be in keeping with the original area, but still usable for the 21st Century.
The large front lawn now offers a welcome to visitors, as well as a place for front yard cricket to be played on Summer afternoons.
In keeping with the original gardens for a cottage style, while preserving some of the native flora there is a mix of roses, lavender , camellias and gardenias in one section, but as the garden meanders, there are silky oaks, flowering gums, syzygiums, westringias and melalucas which welcome the birds back and will be come somewhat of a screen to the street below.
The vegetable garden once again brings food back into the kitchen.
All rooms have received major renovations, ensuring colour schemes were sympathetic to the era, all 5 fireplaces are now in working condition and the details (light fittings, power points etc) are also in keeping.
The view now seen over Ipswich, although changed by over 140 years of building and development, must still have many similarities to that which was enjoyed by the original owners, the Pantons.
The front verandah is now able to be used again as the garden and lawns have opened up this area. The native trees will soon act as a natural screener to the houses opposite, while not interrupting the wider view.
A 30 000 litre tank has been installed to ensure the gardens are well watered.

Criticism raised over Needham Market Middle School homes plan with terrible access
The Needham Market Middle School site where the homes are planned, while concerns have been raised by locals over the narrow access from The Causeway and School Street Picture: GOOGLE MAPS
Plans to build 41 homes on the former Needham Market Middle School site have raised fresh concerns from neighbours who say the proposals are much different to those originally proposed.
A public meeting was organised by Needham Market Town Council on Saturday, December 8, at the community centre next to the former school site, where the plans could be viewed and comments submitted.
The school closed in July 2015, before Mid Suffolk District Council bought the site from the county council at the end of last year and a consultation on initial proposals for homes and a library got underway in the summer.
