Garden causeway, c.1895, by C E Kempe for Edward James Wythes. Built of brick with facing of squared and coursed limestone and ashlar coping. The causeway extends approx 60 m on an east-west axis having a rusticated through-arch and the remains of stone steps leading down to sunken parterres which lie to north and south of causeway. The causeway is attached on its eastern end to the centre of a terrace wall, which borders east sides of parterres and runs to meet garden pavilions (qv) at its north and south ends. West end of causeway has semi-circular projection, forming part of ha-ha wall which extends approx 40 m to south and in an L shape approx 70 m to north-west. The causeway has had balustrading, obelisks and statuary removed, and formed part of a formal garden laid out in Edwardian Baroque style, after the type advocated by Reginald Blomfield in his book 'The Formal Garden in England', 1892.
