Description

The Bath House or Banqueting House, built between 1756 and 1778 by Capability Brown, is a Grade I listed Neo-Jacobean structure located in St Martins Without Burghley Park. This rectangular building is constructed of ashlar and features pilastered corners, ornate Jacobean strapwork cresting, and tall pinnacles at each corner. It is a single-storey structure with three glazed bays, each adorned with intricately carved tympanae. The design may have been inspired by the Jacobean banqueting house at Campden House in Chipping Campden, Gloucestershire.
