The Orangery And Kitchen Garden Walls, Gates And Gate Piers Approximately 88 Metres To South Of Pitchford Hall

The Orangery and kitchen garden walls, gates, and gate piers are located approximately 88 metres south of Pitchford Hall. The orangery, now a house, and the kitchen garden walls date from the mid to late 18th century, while the orangery itself was likely remodelled or rebuilt in the late 19th or early 20th century.

The walls are constructed of red brick in a Flemish garden wall bond, with red sandstone dressings. They have an irregular rectangular plan measuring approximately 50 by 80 metres, featuring curved corners to the west and main entrances to the east and west. The walls stand about 4 metres high, with a stone plinth and coping. The central entrance on the east side has a pair of wrought iron gates and square sandstone gate piers, which include plinths, friezes, and pyramidal caps. Flanking walls ramp up to full height with square brick piers, each topped with a moulded stone cornice, cap, and a carved lion statue. The west entrance features a pair of boarded gates, square stone gate piers with pyramidal caps, and flanking walls that also ramp up to full height. There are small segmental-headed boarded doors located to the north-west and south-west, and two short stubs of wall project from the main circuit to the south.

The orangery itself has a painted timber frame with some red brick at the rear and a hipped stone slate roof with gablets. It is a single storey building with a moulded gutter and likely has a later central brick ridge stack. The façade is divided by pilasters, featuring wooden cross-windows with margin lights; there are five windows on each side of a central French casement with side-lights, and four-window return fronts. At the rear, there is a one-storey lean-to.

Inside, the orangery has domed ceilings and internal roller blinds. Pitchford Hall was restored and enlarged in the 1870s and 1880s by George Devey, suggesting that the rebuilding or remodelling of the orangery may date from that time or shortly thereafter. A building on the same site is depicted on the tithe map of 1848.
