Description
Park View is a house located in the parish of Edensor, built in the 18th century and around 1830-1840, likely designed by Joseph Paxton and William Robertson. It features a Tudoresque style, constructed from coursed squared sandstone with ashlar dressings and quoins. The stone slate roof has coped gables with moulded kneelers and ashlar gable stacks. The building has a chamfered plinth and stands two storeys tall, with a twin-gabled north elevation.
Access to the central doorway is via four stone steps. The door has an 18th-century moulded architrave and a bracketed hoodmould, and it is a Gothic panelled door. This doorway is flanked by wooden cross windows set in bead-moulded ashlar surrounds. Above, there are two similar windows on either side of a smaller window, with the outer windows featuring Gothic glazing and larger stepped and returned hoodmoulds. Between the gables, there is a stone shield in relief, while the left gable contains a similar shield in a moulded panel, and the right gable has a blind Gothic niche. The arrangement of the windows is not symmetrical with the gables, suggesting that the building may have been remodeled from an earlier structure. The rear elevation was entirely remodeled in the mid-20th century. This house was part of the picturesque model village created by Paxton for the Sixth Duke of Devonshire.
