Description

The gazebo and attached stables, located 10 metres southwest of No 1 (Rode Mill House), date from the late 18th century. They are constructed of ashlar with chamfered quoins and quoin bands, featuring moulded eaves cornices and hipped pantile roofs in two distinct sections, along with a small brick stack to the left. The building has a classical design with an irregular frontage divided into three unequal sections of 1:3:3 bays.

The gazebo is situated in the left bay, showcasing a broad-keyed semi-circular headed arch with impost blocks at the ground floor, leading to double plank doors. Above, there is a Venetian window on the first floor, which has a moulded head with egg and dart ornamentation and a triple keystone, flanked by pilasters. Each side light features a moulded dentil cornice and a moulded, bracketed sill, with a sash window in the centre (some glazing bars are missing) and casements matching the sidelights.

In the centre bays, there are three circular pitching eyes with moulded stone surrounds on the first floor, along with recessed plank doors. The ground floor has two segmental head, bead-moulded stone-mullioned and transom windows flanking a segmental-headed door opening, which is set in a similarly moulded surround and has a divided plank door. The right bays also feature three circular pitching eyes in moulded stone surrounds and recessed plank doors, as well as two broad-keyed semi-circular headed arches with impost blocks at the ground floor, leading to plank doors, one of which is half-glazed.

Access to the gazebo on the first floor of the left return is through a door opening framed by a moulded stone architrave, with a frieze that includes a central fluted panel and a triangular pediment supported by cut stone brackets. This door is a late 18th-century design with six glazed lights and is reached by a long flight of rubble steps that run at right angles to the frontage, accompanied by a rubble balustrade with dressed coping.
