Description

The pier at the south-west corner of the forecourt garden is a garden feature from the early 18th century, constructed of ashlar stone. It features a lion of the Booth crest atop a rectangular pier, which has a projecting base and cornice. From two sides of the pier, short walls with scrolled copings extend outwards, marking the boundaries of the formal lawn. This pier is one of a pair and was installed to replace the forecourt walls that were removed to provide an unobstructed view of the hall.
