Description
Glevering Hall Orangery is an early to mid-19th century structure, likely designed by Decimus Burton, who also enlarged the main hall in 1834-1835. The orangery is built of stone with grey brick on the north side and features a glazed roof. It is a single-storey building with seven bays arranged in a 2:3:2 pattern. The bays are separated by pilasters, with coupled pilasters at the corners and an entablature above. Each bay contains a large sash window, and there is a central entrance with glazed double doors. The central three-bay portico is supported by Adam style columns and features an entablature and a triangular pediment. The roof includes a central shallow glazed dome that rises from an octagonal base, with sawtooth-type glazing on either side. Inside, the roof is supported by slender cast iron columns that resemble palm trees. The orangery has three-bay pedimented return fronts. To the west, there is a later building that is not of special interest. This orangery is particularly fine and remains largely intact.
