Description
The Temple to the east of Rushmore House is a Grade II listed structure built in 1890 for General Pitt-Rivers. It is designed in the style of a Temple of Vesta and constructed from limestone ashlar with a copper domed roof. The building features a rotunda supported by fifteen composite columns that rise to an entablature adorned with an egg and dart frieze and a modillioned cornice. The temple stands on a nine-step stylobate. It is situated within a landscaped garden, and its location is significant as it relates to the nearby walled garden to the west, offering views through the gates to the open countryside beyond.
