Description
Sunken rose garden, circa 1900, designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens as part of The Pleasaunce, a major seaside residence built from 1897 onwards.
The garden is rectangular in plan and is entered via flights of semicircular steps set into both the east and west walls. The walling is constructed in bands of brick, stone, tiles and flint, with York stone and brick paving. Brick-walled raised beds feature concave niches positioned either side of the steps and at the north and south ends.
This is an attractive piece of garden design with details characteristic of Lutyens, notably the concave followed by convex flights of steps and carefully laid swirls of brick paving. The gardens at The Pleasaunce are included in the English Heritage Register of Parks and Gardens at grade II.
