Description

The summer house, located in Bridge Royd Wood approximately 200 metres west of Cascade Bridge in Bretton Park, was likely built in the early 19th century for Colonel Thomas Richard and Diana Beaumont. It is constructed from tooled ashlar with stuccoed brick infill at the rear and has a semi-circular shape. The structure is supported by four Roman Doric columns and two square engaged piers, which hold up the entablature and blocking course. At the rear, there are two pairs of columns. The summer house is raised on a two-step podium and features a stone-flag floor laid radially, topped with a flat roof.
