GV II

Kitchen garden walls and loggia. Circa late C18 or early C19, the loggia added possibly in 1818 by Thomas Hopper. Red brick walls in English bond with brick coping and with brick pilasters on the outside, enclosing a large rectangular kitchen garden. On the south side, facing south, is a loggia built of ashlar of 2:1:2 bays with pilasters and an entablature, the centre bay has a doorway through to the garden, the flanking bays were open-fronted originally, but those on the right have been infilled with brick and on the left it is weatherboarded. The rear walls of the two bays are brick and semi-circular, the wall tops rebuilt in brick and the pitched roof clad in corrugated steel sheets; the parapet centre is raised and on top there is a weather-cock. A short section of the north wall of the garclen has fallen down. NOTE: Stoneham Park was remodelled in 1775 by Lancelot Brown for John Fleming and in 1818 the house was rebuilt for John Willis Fleming to the designs of Thomas Hopper.
