Orangery At Barton Seagrave Hall

The Orangery at Barton Seagrave Hall is a Grade I listed building from the late 18th century, designed in the Adam style. It is a single-storey structure made of ashlar stone. The main south front features a central canted bay with a series of arched French windows, arranged in a 1:3:1 pattern, each adorned with delicately traceried fanlights and diamond-patterned glazing in the marginal lights. Slender ribbed cast iron 'Tower of the Winds' colonnettes separate the windows, with single colonnettes at each end and along the side elevations. The building is topped with an entablature. At the rear, there is a lower wing that includes round arched panels on the side elevations, which are complemented by verandahs supported by ribbed Doric cast iron colonnettes. Inside, the orangery features an apse opposite the canted bay and three glazed saucer domes, with one large dome flanked by two smaller ones. The Orangery, along with Barton Seagrave Hall and an outbuilding, forms a cohesive group of structures.
