Description
The building consists of terracing located below a pavilion and conservatories, constructed from grey-brown stone with red terracotta balustrades and copings, featuring ball finials. The terraces slope downwards to the west, providing views over the Usk and the Bristol Channel. At the top, the pavilion is partially enclosed by two low walls, which have been reduced in height on the northwest side. Below the entrance to the pavilion, the terrace splits into two flights of stairs that lead down to the first of two narrow terraces, situated approximately 3 meters below the pavilion. Underneath these stairs, there are five segmental arches with upper windows that are boarded over, along with curving stepped walls at the ends of the terrace.
The lower narrow terrace is separated by a grass slope, which has a drop of about 1.5 meters, and features two flights of stairs, although the balustrades have been lost. At each end of this section, there are exits to the park. Two additional flights of stairs lead down from this level, with a drop of approximately 1 meter, to a large rectangular terrace that has a low stone parapet and circular bastions at the two outer corners. This terrace includes a rebuilt polygonal bandstand. From this level, a central pair of stairs curves down and merges into a single stair with a curving wall. The bottom wall features two stepped buttresses, and the corner bastions are battered up to the parapet level.
