Description
The Garden House is an 18th-century red brick house with a hipped tiled roof, featuring a gabled dormer and a corbelled cornice. It is two storeys high with attics, and has two casement windows on the front elevation, each with glazing bars under cambered arches. Two segmentally curved stone steps lead up to a central trellis porch. The side elevation on the right includes two small, ground-floor canted bay windows. The building has group value from its contribution to the character of the Lavender Hall Lane area.
