Description

The summerhouse, located 5 metres north of Warre House, is an early 19th-century structure that was restored in the mid-20th century. It features a painted brick facade and a conical thatched roof. The building is single storey and has a facade with three 10-pane windows flanking a plank door, which is topped by a plank that extends to the thatch. At the rear, there are remnants of a rustic wooden arcade with a wooden frieze. This summerhouse is listed for its group value with Warre House, which retains much of its early 19th-century picturesque garden layout.
