Description

The Roman Garden Temple is a garden temple built around 1765, designed by Stephen Wright for the Duke of Newcastle. It features a Roman Doric distyle portico constructed from ashlar stone and topped with a hipped lead roof. The temple includes a triglyph frieze adorned with guttae and a cornice decorated with rosettes. At each end of the structure, there is a single round-headed glazing bar light. Inside, the temple boasts a coffered ceiling with a domed central bay.
