Description
The garden house located in the rear garden of 6 Nether Beacon dates back to around 1810. It is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings and features a partly fishscale tiled roof. This single-storey square structure has a basement, with a canted south end and a concave-sided gable at the north end. There is an ashlar platt band below the windows. The canted end has a hipped roof and pointed windows at the angles, while the right return includes a pointed entrance accessed by steps, featuring paired stuccoed plank doors. The rear side has a basement entrance and an upper window with leaded glazing arranged in an intersecting pattern, and the gable is topped with a window vane.
Inside, the octagonal room has plain lining and a vaulted ceiling. The angle fireplace features a four-centred head, panelled buttresses, a traceried frieze, and a cornice. This interesting structure was built in what was once the garden of Ardmore House and is said by the owner to have been constructed by French prisoners of war.
