Description
The Ionic Temple, dating from around 1730 and attributed to Vanbrugh, is located in the grounds of Duncombe Park Estate in Helmsley. This Grade I listed structure is built from sandstone ashlar and features a lead roof. The temple has an open rotunda and is set on a stepped podium, supported by nine Ionic columns. These columns hold up a plain architrave and frieze, topped with a dentilled cornice and a domed roof. The temple is noted in Hussey's "Duncombe Park I and II" published in Country Life in December 1957, as well as in Pevsner's "Yorkshire: the North Riding" from 1966.
