Description

The Tig House in the Wilderness Garden at Adlington Hall is a summerhouse built in the mid-18th century for Charles Legh. It is constructed of red brick, partly covered with black and white painted timber framing. The roof is pyramidal, made of stone slate, and features a wooden finial at the top. The building has a square plan and was originally open on three sides, but now has only two open faces. These open sides are adorned with timber panels that have quatrefoil decoration and a flattened ogee-headed opening, which is partially concealed by curved wooden brackets. Inside, there is a later addition of a fixed stone table, measuring 2 meters square, made from a single dressed piece supported by four square legs with recessed hammer-dressed panels on each face. The ceiling displays Charles Legh's monogram within a circular panel.
