A remnant Arcadian landscape c1730, complete with triumphal arch and temple (both buildings at risk), designed by Ambrose Phillipps, a member of the Society of Dilettanti. Now seriously degraded.

A reserved matters planning application was submitted in 2020 that includes the restoration of the park.
