Description
This garden shelter dates from around 1820 and is constructed of stone and brick, with a stone slab roof. It is a single-storey structure designed in the Tuscan style. The shelter has an apsidal (fan-shaped) plan and a hemispherical ceiling made of ashlar stone. The opening is framed by plain pilasters, featuring moulded caps, that support an elliptical archivolt with a keystone carved as a Grecian head. The pilasters are flanked by Tuscan engaged columns which support a Tuscan pediment. The moulds of the entablature are returned at the ends and continue to embrace wide projecting pilasters facing east and west. The rear of the shelter is constructed of brick in English Garden Wall Bond, and is roofed by two large stone slabs pitched to the slope of the pediment and joined by a stone ridge. This shelter demonstrates group value as part of the wider landscape setting of Bradshaw House.
