Description
The Garden Terrace, Hemicycle, and Archway at Warpool Court Hotel were built around 1870. The garden terrace wall features a balustrade with broad elliptical arches set between piers, an off-centre flight of steps, a garden seat in the hemicycle at the west end, and a large ornamental gateway at the east end.
Constructed from rubble stone, the terrace is extensively decorated with moulded black brick and red flooring tiles. The piers are adorned with rusticated pilasters made of curved black brick, alternating with bands of red. The terrace wall is topped with red tiles, and the arches of the balustrade are made of red tile, rusticated, with stone in the spandrels. The coping is also made of red tile, and some piers feature terracotta urns. There are four bays of terracing to the west of the steps, with the fourth bay being advanced. The stone steps have cast-iron panels in the balustrade, and urns are placed on the piers. There are two additional bays before a return to the north, leading to the gateway.
The gateway is situated between rubble stone piers, which are angled in red brick and rise higher on each side to stepped caps. Between the piers, there is a rusticated arched gateway made of red and black brick, topped with a red brick stepped cornice. Above the upper part of the piers, two quadrant curves create a reversed arch feature.
The hemicycle at the west end has rubble walls with red and black brick pilasters and a central garden seat supported by black brick corbels, beneath a triple arched and open pedimented centerpiece. The arches rest on two corbels and the outer piers.
Similar distinctive features in coloured brick can be found in the main house, the walled garden, and the pump-house. One garden feature is dated 1870, when the house was owned by the Reverend A J M Green and was known as Pen-y-Garn.
