Description
The Pheasantry is a building dating from around 1700, featuring three storeys and an attic with four windows. It has a high-pitched, tiled, hipped roof that includes two gabled dormers. The front is made of red brick and is adorned with stucco pilasters that have alternating block dressings. These pilasters support a heavy, projecting moulded cornice and are designed to form corner capitals that break forward. The building has gauged, flat brick arches, painted white, over 19th-century casement windows. A stuccoed band runs along the second floor. On the ground floor, there are two renewed oak oriel bow windows and a central door. The main entrance, located on the right side, features a six-panel door beneath a patterned fanlight, framed by a doorcase with stucco pilasters and an entablature.
