Description

A flight of ornamental steps terminating the Green Terrace vista at Shrubland Park, built in the mid-C19, probably in association with Sir Charles Barry's landscape improvements.

MATERIALS

The nosing and balustrade of the steps are made of limestone, with the treads covered in cement. The terrace is built of yellow brick.

PLAN

The steps are located at the northern end of the Green Terrace.

DESCRIPTION

The staircase has a flared base of five steps that curls outwards to terminate in an empty round plinth at each end of the curtail step. The upper ten steps are balustraded with square plinths at each end. They rise to a rectangular, stone-flagged terrace, balustraded to the south, east and west. The base of the terrace is built of rusticated yellow brick.
