Description
The Tea House, located 200 yards east of Great Saxham Hall, is a late 18th-century temple dedicated to Diana, possibly designed by Capability Brown as part of his landscaping work at Great Saxham Hall. The structure is octagonal with stuccoed brick walls and a pyramid roof covered in fish scale slates. It features gabled porticoes on all four sides, supported by Tuscan columns that hold up a pediment also covered with slates. Each portico has a circular window with a moulded architrave and an arched head. Inside each portico, there is a niche with a semi-circular head; one of these niches instead contains a pair of three-panelled doors. The building is currently in poor condition.
