Gazebo, Adjoining Walls, Raised Walk And Granite Fence Posts In Rear Garden Of Vicarage Meadow

The gazebo, adjoining walls, raised walk, and granite fence posts in the rear garden of Vicarage Meadow date from the late 19th century. It was likely built for Admiral John Borlase or William Borlase, a former vicar of the parish. The structure is made of granite rubble with granite dressings and features a pyramidal scantle slate roof with parapets on the sides facing the garden. The gazebo is square and located in the corner of the garden, with high walls that adjoin the rear and left-hand sides. The left-hand wall has a raised walk on the garden side, and fencing posts are present to separate the meadow from the garden area in front of the gazebo. The exterior is a single-storey structure with a symmetrical front that has two windows and a central doorway, featuring leaded lights. On the left side, there is a two-light mullioned window. Inside, the gazebo contains a small fireplace and ceiling beams that support a false floor.
