Details

BAWDSEY (Off) FERRY ROAD TM 33 NW (South end) 12/16 Walls of walled garden, gateways, orangery and gymnasium. c. 40 yards north of Bawdsey Manor G.V. II Walls, gateways and orangery of walled garden. c.1900. Red random bond brick with ashlar dressings and timber and glass conservatory with metal- framed roof. Rectangular enclosure with conservatory at centre of the south face of the north wall. The south face of the south wall has regularly spaced pilaster buttresses to right of centre with ashlar caps and coping and a stone string course. To the centre is a gateway with ashlar surround that has a rectangular opening with rounded corners. Around this is a moulded band and at either side are debased Corinthian pilasters with plain shafts on plinths. Panelled frieze above and overthrow of Flamboyant/Art Nouveau influence with large-scale crockets on tendrils forming an arched surround to a cartouche with central oval boss. To either side of this are pinacles with foliate decoration. Double wrought-iron gates between with a fixed upper panel, which has a shell motif at centre and S and C-scrolls at either side. The gates have spear- head decoration with scrolls above and below the lock rails, forming the dogbars and suspended from the top rail with S and C scrolls to the lock rail panel. To left of this is a gymnasium (perhaps originally a squash court) with blank brick walls to its lower body and regularly spaced buttresses which die back via offsets. Two gabled, paired dormers in each long side and one to each end wall. Copper domed cupola to the ridge. Adjoining this at left is the Gardener's Cottage (q.v. 12/18). The eastern wall has a large semi-circular bench niche to its eastern side flanked by piers with flat ashlar caps. To either side are regularly spaced buttresses each with 2 offsets. The orangery is of classical design and has a southern facade of 5 symmetrically disposed bays, divided by fluted Roman Doric pilasters with moulded caps and bases supporting an entablature with triglyphs and guttae. The wider bay to the centre held double doors, each of 2 x 5 panes, which were lying on the ground at the time of resurvey (1987). Panels of 1 x 5 panes to either side of these and a round-arched fanlight above. The lateral bays have round-headed windows of 3 x 5 panes falling to ground level and above each of these is a horizontal glazed panel. The left hand side has two similar bays at right and at left and cutting across these a diagonal beam, marking the roof line of a glazed forcing wall which originally adjoined this side but is now demolished. Four plain bays to the right hand side. The entablature originally bore urns above the pilasters, now taken down. The western wall has a gateway to this northern end without piers. A spur wall extends in line with the northern wall towards the east, beyond the enclosure, and this has a further ashlar gateway with pilaster buttresses and ramped walling at either side. The gateway appears to have been brought from elsewhere. It has panelled pilasters to either side of a round-headed arch and fluted square panels to the centre and at either side and a richly moulded cornice above. Broken pediment above this with a finial to the centre and a similar flanking pinacle at right. The orangery is badly dilapidated, its design is based on that at Hintelsham Hall, which house the Quilters also owned.
