GILLING WITH HARTFORTH OLD HALL LANE NZ 10 SE AND SEDBURY (south side)
8/137 Summer House approximately 150 metres 4.2.69 south west of Gillingwood Hall
GV II*
Summerhouse. Early-mid C18. For the Wharton family. Coursed rubble and ashlar sandstone, Westmorland and Welsh slate roofs. T-shaped plan, set into hillside, 2 storeys with basement at front, 3 bays. North-east front: central bay projects slightly. Basement: coursed rubble in banded rustication. Upper section: ashlar. Central aedicule bay with 4 unfluted Roman Doric columns carrying full entablature and pediment. On each side a shell niche with sill band, and blind opening above. Cornice. Hipped Westmorland slate roof. Rear: narrower range in coursed rubble; quoins; central bay is open, with apsidal rear wall; 2 shell niches flanking brick oculus in open pediment; Westmorland slate roof. The summerhouse is set at a higher level than the site of Old Gillingwood Hall, and from it there is an impressive view to the north-east. It is set into the hillside, and behind it is a quarry which presumably provided the stone to build Old Gillingwood Hall and its outlying buildings.
