Description

The balustrade, two flights of steps, and stone bench on the south side of Newby Hall were constructed around 1875, likely designed by William Burges for Henry Vyner and Lady Mary Vyner. Made of ashlar, the balustrade surrounds the parterre on the south side of the house and extends southward to enclose a garden pond. The balusters are bulbous, and the piers feature urns and ball finials. The curved bench at the west end has a central urn and ball finials on its curved back. William Burges was also commissioned by Lady Mary Vyner to design the Church of Christ the Consoler and was involved in the early stages of the south garden and statue walk.
