Description
The garden house at Foxhunt Manor was built around 1900 for Joseph Lucas. It is constructed of brick, either in Flemish or stretcher bond, featuring some terracotta decoration. The building has a wooden bracket cornice, window and door surrounds, and a hipped plain-tiled roof with terracotta ridge tiles.
The structure has a rectangular plan with a central entrance and seating along the rear wall. The entrance front features a central open doorcase flanked by two tier pilasters; the upper ones are bulbous and partly fluted, while the lower ones are fluted and flanked by openings with segmental heads. The other elevations are characterized by plain brickwork.
Inside, the walls are lined with brick in stretcher bond, topped with a terracotta ovolo-moulded cornice and a boarded wooden ceiling. The rear wall includes a rectangular panel divided into three sections adorned with floral motifs, and there is a fixed wooden bench supported by chamfered brackets.
