The Gazebo

The Gazebo is a former summerhouse located in the grounds of The Manor House, now converted into a house itself. It dates from the early 18th century and is constructed from coursed squared and dressed limestone, featuring large quoins and a stone slate roof. The building has a square plan and stands two storeys high, with a bank rising to first floor height on the east side.

On the east side, there is a central 20th-century plank door. At ground floor level on the left-hand wall, 20th-century plate-glass windows and a glazed door have been inserted. Above this, there is a two-light stone-mullioned window from the 19th or 20th century. The rear wall has a blocked double-width entrance, with a 20th-century casement window inserted into the blocking. Originally, the ground floor contained two 14th-century windows that were brought from Devon, but these have now been removed. Some traces of wall paintings from its time as a chapel remain below the stairs. The Gazebo is depicted in Kip's engraving of The Manor House, which dates to around 1710.
