South Pavilion

The South Pavilion is a Grade I listed house, originally serving as a coach-house and service pavilion for Wotton House, built between 1704 and 1714. It is constructed of red brick with an ashlar plinth and quoins, featuring a moulded wooden eaves cornice with modillions. The roof is hipped and covered with old tiles, and there are two rectangular brick chimneys topped with moulded stone caps, along with a central wooden turret.

The building has an L-plan layout. The northern and eastern fronts are designed as a single tall storey with an attic, while the other sides consist of two storeys with an attic and a lower ground floor that originally housed coach-houses. The symmetrical northern front has five bays, with blind panels at the plinth featuring segmental heads and keyblocks. It also includes tall leaded windows with double transoms, raised ashlar surrounds, and moulded stone panels above.

There are three dormers with paired leaded casements and moulded pediments, flanked by triangular segmental shapes. The main cornice is notably broken forward in the central bay, which features a square stone panel with a raised surround and carved side scrolls. Below this, there are double panelled doors set within a stone doorcase adorned with Doric pilasters, a triglyph frieze, and a cornice. The wooden turret has a square base with compass roses, a hexagonal arcaded lantern, and an ogee lead roof topped with a weathervane. This pavilion complements the Clock Pavilion across the way and is a significant part of the grand composition of Wotton House.
