Summary Record

Single storey loggia with end pavilions and obelisk finials. The pavilion was designed by Stokes, the son-in-law of Sir Joseph Paxton who advised on the layout of the park. The pavilion spent some years in a dilapidated state, but was restored in the 1990's, the loggia openings were filled in with glass and the pavilion is now used as a event venue.
