Harold Peto as part of his garden design for Sir Arthur
Crosfield. Brick with stone dressings, coping, columns and
piers. Cast-iron gates. The garden comprises 3 linked
compartments stepping downhill and bounded by stone-coped
brick walls. Steps with stone-coped balustrades from a shaped
wall lead to the first compartment which has a central pond
with fountain (qv) and surrounding statues (qv). Similar steps
lead into a central compartment. The third, most sunken
compartment is approached through tall stone, panelled and
corniced gate piers with cast-iron gate and decorative
wrought-iron overthrow. Flanking the piers are substantial
stone balustrades crowning a brick wall. Stone balustraded
steps lead down into an apsed rectangular garden with
stone-columned pergola which continues around the apse formed
by a segmental shaped reflecting pond.
