Mayfield House Summer House And Tool Shed, 2 Hill Street

Mayfield House Summer House and Tool Shed, located at 2 Hill Street, is a late 19th-century structure. The summer house is an octagonal timber gazebo with boarded walls, featuring a crowning ogee roof topped with a finial. It has ogee-headed openings and was originally placed as the centerpiece of a compartmentalized walled garden associated with a later 19th-century villa. The entrance has narrow two-leaf ogee panelled doors with windows in the upper half and small quatrefoil lights above. The flanking sides include four-light windows that are timber mullioned and transomed, while the rear flanks are blank with a quatrefoil light at the center of the rear flank. The polygonal zinc ogee roof has an additional ogee canopy over the entrance and a ball finial at the tapered apex, which supports a weathervane with a flag. The structure features lead flashing and diamond-pane glazing with colored glass.

Inside, the summer house has a patterned terracotta floor and benches along seven sides, with box seats and carved arms on the rear flank. There are sliding diminutive peep-hole hatches and quatrefoil lights on the sides and rear. The decorative compartmentalized ribbed polygonal plastered roof includes corbels, masques, fleurons, and lion bosses, with a fleuron boss at the center.

The tool shed, also from the late 19th century, is a rectangular structure made of polychrome brick located in the southeast corner of the walled garden. It features a segmental-headed off-centre doorway with a chevron-boarded timber door and a piended slate roof that includes a cast-iron rooflight.
