Description
The Lower Deer House is a fodder house for deer located in the deer park of Edgcumbe Country Park. It dates from the late 18th century to the early 19th century and is constructed from sandstone rubble with granite piers. This single-storey structure originally had open fronts and backs and is now roofless. The front features five wide bays divided by granite monolith piers, while the rear consists of eight bays, with three granite monoliths to the right, two rubble piers, and two granite monoliths to the left. The gable end walls are also made of rubble.
