Description
The Apple Store and adjacent garden walls, located to the north of the kitchen garden, were originally built in the late 18th century and remodeled around 1840. The structure features a brick front and a rubble rear, with ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof.
The south elevation of the Apple Store is two storeys high and consists of two bays. It has one ground floor and two first floor two-light mullioned windows, all set in chamfered surrounds. A stone eaves cornice and coped gables enhance the design. A thin course of stones at the sill level of the upper windows indicates the eaves level of the original 18th-century building. The flanking walls are topped with flat stone coping, which sweeps down at the left end and steps down at the right. The rear elevation features various 19th-century openings in chamfered surrounds.
John Errington, who claimed to have spent "above £20,000" on improvements to the estate, including the creation of extensive gardens and hothouses, successfully campaigned against a proposed canal through his land in 1805.
