Description
The kitchen garden pavilion and walls, located 400 metres south-west of Court of Hill, date back to the 18th century. This structure is built of brick and features an ashlar portico. The rear has a hipped slate roof. The walls create a quadrangle that encloses the garden, with the pavilion positioned along the uphill side and a garden gateway on the downhill side.
The south-west front is accessed by a flight of stone steps leading up to the portico, which is supported by a pair of Roman Doric columns and flanked by pilasters. It has a plain entablature and a pediment adorned with shallow modillioned cornices. At the rear, there is an entrance featuring a four-panelled door set within panelled reveals.
Inside, the pavilion has modillioned plaster cornices and a boarded dado. The garden walls are made of brick and have moulded brick copings, with plain buttresses topped with ashlar coping. Each side wall contains brick segmental-arched gateway openings with plain boarded doors. The gateway opposite the pavilion is marked by brick piers topped with ball finials.
