Description

Le Chateau is part of a demolished estate house originally associated with Garswood New Hall, built around 1822. The building is constructed of stucco with a slate roof.

It is a one-story structure with three bays. The first bay features quoins, a mutuled cornice, and a parapet with cornice and blocking course. The remaining two bays are lower, with a cornice, blocking course, and quoins at the right-hand end. The windows have architraves and round-headed lights with roll mouldings. The window in the second bay has four lights, with a central king mullion, while the others have three lights. The window in the first bay is larger and has a rectangular plaque above bearing the initials 'J.G'. The entrance, located between the second and third bays, is flanked by a Tuscan aedicule and includes a half-glazed door with an architrave, and a rectangular plaque above.

A curved screen wall extends to the right, featuring a rusticated pier. The right return is treated similarly. A weather vane is located at the rear, displaying a lion crest.
