GV II
Garden wall, summerhouse and privy. Wall. Probably mid-to late C18. Uncoursed
limestone rubble with coping, ramped near corners on west side, to north side
and northern part of east side; squared and coursed rubble to south side and
southern part of east side and low stone wall with iron railings to remainder of
west side. Encloses an area approximately 70 x 40m roughly, the shape of a
parallelogram, forming the garden of Kelmscott Manor (q.v.). Principal entrance
is towards south end of east side; gateway with raised narrow gable running
along axis of wall has plank door in moulded surround with apparently reused
pointed strap hinges. A few metres to the north (at the point where the
regularly coursed stonework turns to rubble) is a polygonal summerhouse.
Probably late C19. Open to garden side with wooden posts supporting stone slate
roof with stone ball finial. At the south-west corner of the wall, immediately
to the north-west of the service range of Kelmscott Manor, is a privy. Probably
early C19. Rendered uncoursed limestone rubble, scored in imitation of dressed
stone; pyramidal stone slate roof with overhanging eaves and stone ball finial.
Square plan, rounded to south-west corner. Single storey. Boarded door with
bracketed lean-to hood on east side and leaded latticed window to north side.
Interior. Has triple-seater earth closet.
