The Belvedere, Including Associated Terraces

Simple Classical house of 2 storeys; T-plan. Stucco elevations with hipped slate roof and deep eaves. Three-bay main (SW) elevation with wide arch to the centre containing a recessed tripartite door with small-pane glazing. Twelve-pane sash windows with external shutters and full-height plain, dividing pilasters. The central first-floor bay has an iron-balustraded balcony with small-pane glazed door. The main entrance is to the NW, via a sloped canopy porch extruded in the angle between the main (SW) and rear (NE) wings; small-pane glazed door. Above the porch is a small-pane glazed oculus, with a 12-pane sash to the ground floor L, beyond a small 6-pane light. The advanced section to the R is the hipped end wall of the main SW block. This has 12-pane sashes and stucco end pilasters, as before.

A short section of wall with an open arch links the Belvedere with the rear range of the Pantheon. Stepped down immediately to the S of Belvedere and built into and against a rock outcrop is a near semi-circular slate-paved terrace facing out across the lane and towards the estuary beyond. The terrace is approximately 4m wide and has a 1m high rendered brick parapet with faux gun loops facing the lane. Eight steps lead down to this from a part-cobbled forecourt area in front of Belvedere. Adjoining this terrace immediately to the NE is a smaller, triangular one with parapet as before.
