Description
This is a summerhouse built in the late 19th century, located about 30 metres northwest of Broadgate Farm House, with an attached wall. The structure is made of red brick, featuring bands of flint nodules on the front elevation, and has a Welsh slate roof with a coped gable at the front and a plain gable at the rear. It is a single-storey building with a three-bay front elevation, where the bays are defined by pinnacled buttresses and square-on-plan corner buttresses. The central bay contains a semi-circular arched doorway with a plain fanlight above, and the door is partially glazed with painted and etched glass in the margins. The side bays have plain semi-circular arched windows. Each side elevation includes a single pier in the middle, extending to the eaves. There is a cob wall extending from both sides of the building, reaching the eaves level of the summerhouse and featuring pitched tile coping, which returns back to Broadgate Farm House on the north side. This building serves almost as a folly and contributes to the group value of both the Farm House and the Barns.
