Description

"Claire-voyée" is a structure built around 1920, likely designed by Philip Tilden for Sir Philip Sassoon. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and is set on a platform that is integrated into the hillside. The platform features a 3-bay loggia at its center, with brick steps leading down from both ends against a retaining wall. The loggia is adorned with scrolled wrought iron work that has rose and fleur-de-lys finials. It includes round-headed arches, each with a thin red tile band across the tops and a keystone on the central arch. The interior boasts a ribless quadripartite brick vault and shallow wall arcading, while the floor is laid with herringboned tiles arranged in octagonal patterns. The central bay has a semi-circular rear recess topped with a shell roof made of herringboned tiles. In front of the loggia, there is a narrow tessellated brick terrace positioned between the steps leading down from the platform.
