Description

An arbour trellis, created in the 1840s within Charles Barry’s parterre garden at Trentham Hall, for the 2nd Duke of Sutherland.

MATERIALS: it is of cast and wrought iron on low stone plinths.

PLAN: the trellis is a linear feature running north-south along the east side of the parterre garden.

DESCRIPTION: it consists of a series of round arches forming a tunnel walkway set on a low stone plinth, with horizontal wires running along the tunnel for planting. The ends terminate in three openings at right angles to each other, each opening with a pair of scroll-shaped brackets at its base. Some of the scrolls have been recast and replaced, others have been restored.
