SK 23 81 PARISH OF HATHERSAGE SCHOOL LANE 6/52 Garden Pavilion and garden walls to Hathersage Hall GV II

Garden pavilion and walling. Mid C18. Square pavilion, of ashlar gristone on a rubble gritstone plinth band, with pyramidal stone slated roof, having lead rolls to hip ridges and a ball finial to the apex. Garden elevation, flush with taper face of garden walling has coupled doorways with a central pier and arched heads below a diminutive pediment. Other elevations have single light openings with eliptical arched heads to lintels and boarded shutters. Above window heads, projecting broad band course and moulded eaves cornice. The pavilion is linked to the walls which enclose the gardens to Hathersage Hall. These are of coursed rubble gritstone with a flat coping and are three metres high. They extend in lengths of approximately 100 metres in a roughly square arrangement to enclose the gardens to the north west of Hathersage Hall. The wall to the north west end of the garden was a forcing wall, and contains raking flues by which the wall could be heated in times of sudden late frosts.
