Description
The balustrades and steps to the sunken garden and loggia are located at the northeast end of the garden front of Tyringham Hall. Designed in 1909 by Rees, the structure features stone balustrades and steps leading to a paved area surrounding a large square pool. This pool has a fountain that showcases a cherub mounted on a fish and holding another fish, flanked by cockleshells and surrounded by frogs. The loggia is situated at an upper level and is supported by a colonnade of four Doric columns, with oak joists above. The rear wall is made of ashlar stone and includes a central apse with three semi-circular arched windows, flanked by semi-circular headed niches that contain statues. The balustrades and steps are positioned in front of this arrangement.
