Description
The Garden House is a house dated 1766, possibly designed by Lancelot Brown, located in Wallington Demesne. The building is constructed of tooled ashlar stone, except for the outshuts and rear wing, which are made of squared stone with dressings, and it has a slate roof. It stands two storeys tall and has three symmetrical bays. The exterior features rusticated quoins, sill bands, and a moulded eaves cornice.
The central entrance has an altered six-panel door with a two-pane overlight, framed by an architrave with a pulvinated frieze and a pediment. The house has renewed twelve-pane sash windows. The hipped roof includes a central stepped and corniced chimney stack.
On the left side, there is a full-height canted bay with renewed twelve-pane sashes, and a dated rainwater head to the right. The left outshut has a six-pane casement and a renewed window above, both set in stone surrounds. The right side is similar to the left.
At the rear, the central gabled wing features a four-panel door in a chamfered surround, with a renewed twelve-pane sash stair window above. The flanking outshuts each have a twelve-pane Yorkshire sash with a blocked window above, also in stone surrounds. The interior has not been seen.
