Description

The Pavilion, known as 'The Cot', is a structure dating from around 1730 and is attributed to the architect James Gibbs. It is located southeast of Hartwell House. Originally, there was a cottage attached to it, called Swiss Cottage, which has since been demolished. The Pavilion is constructed from ashlar stone and features Ionic pilasters that flank a semicircular arched opening, complete with an architrave, triple keyblock, and impost moulding. The entablature includes a pulvinated frieze, a dentil cornice, and a pediment. A similar architectural treatment is found on the internal wall. The Pavilion was originally positioned at the end of a long canal, which has now been filled in. It is said that Sir Joshua Reynolds used the Pavilion as a studio during his visits to Hartwell.
