Description
The Garden Pavilion to the South East of Hillworth House is an early 18th-century single-storey square brick structure built on a stone plinth. It features a moulded stone cornice and an ogee-shaped hipped roof covered with old tiles, which has a band of shaped tiles and a ball finial. The entrance door, located on the north side, is half-glazed with nine panes and two lower panels, set within a stone architrave that includes a curved frieze and cornice. Each of the other sides has a central window also framed with a stone architrave and cill.
Inside, the pavilion has an octagonal plan with three corner cupboards and a fireplace in the fourth corner. The interior includes a panelled dado and cupboard fronts, a plaster panel above the fireplace, and a moulded plaster entablature featuring an enriched frieze with floral and shell ornamentation, a bracketed cornice, and a plain domed ceiling. This charming building overlooks the Quaker Burial ground to the east, which is a grassed area with fine tree planting, partly enclosed by a low brick wall.
