Description
The Orangery is a late 18th century structure, likely designed by Charles H. Tatham. It is built of ashlar and features a lead roof. The single-storey facade is characterized by seven free-standing Roman Doric columns arranged in antis, along with a metope frieze and an entablature topped by a balustrade, all divided into seven bays. The central entrance consists of double half-glazed doors with glazing bars, flanked by three large full-height glazing bar sash windows on each side. Inside, the Orangery houses a collection of antique sculptures, which are remnants of the renowned Museum Worsleyanum that originated from Appledurcombe House on the Isle of Wight.
