Description
The North Garden Wall at Britwell House is a 19th-century structure that extends across the garden from the corner of the entrance facade. It is built of red brick with stone dressings. The wall features brick piers spaced 6 feet apart, three of which have stone finials. Inset into the wall is a gabled shelter made of brick and stone, which has a semicircular opening. Facing the forecourt, there is an arched entrance that resembles the shelter and is fitted with wrought-iron gates. At the end of the wall, there is a hexagonal aviary that was formerly topped with a glazed pointed roof. The aviary has three open sides, each featuring two arches supported by a central column with a plain Romanesque-style capital.
