TISBURY WARDOUR PARK ST 92 NW (north side)

4/273 Dairy in Temple Gardens to west of Wardour Castle

GV II

Ornamental dairy. Dated 1794 on rainwater head. Limestone ashlar with domed lead roof. Circular, with semi-circular west portico of four egg and dart unfluted columns, fluted frieze with paterae to Doric entablature, and parapet. Right return has lead rainwater head with date 1794. Rear has semi-circular projection to centre with oculus. Circular interior of portico has double 8-panelled doors and semi-circular niche either side. Interior not accessible at time of survey (January 1986), but said to have stone bench around walls, formerly lined with tiles, octagonal lantern to centre of domed roof. Part of the informal garden layout around Wardour Castle, the detail is very similar to the house and suggests that it may have been designed by Paine or by Soane who worked on the chapel, 1789-90.
