circle the entrance gates and two lodges are placed.
As will be seen on referring to the plan, the house
itself is planned around a cloister which forms a
fountain or entrance court. On the south and
west sides all [the entertaining rooms are placed,
and these have been planned in detail in relation
to [the large square rose garden, which has for its
central feature a circular lily pond, the curb of
which is flat with the paved walks.
This garden is completely enclosed, on the
north side by the house, and on the south, east and
west by pergolas. The southern pergola, arched
and vaulted in stone, is illustrated by Mr. Griggs in
his fine pen drawing on page 182. The water
shown in the background of Mr. Griggs’ drawing
is a portion of one of the two large circular ponds
placed on the centre lines of the east and west
pergolas.
Mr. Griggs has made a very beautiful and
sympathetic picture of the design for the garden-
front of a house and its connecting walk to the
tennis-lawn (p. 184). The design for this house
and garden is based on the English traditional
work of the 16th century, and is treated quite
simply with stone mullioned windows, parapet
gables, and stone walls and roofs. The two
piers shown in the foreground of the drawing
occur in the centre of the north side of the
tennis-lawn, whilst the walk towards the garden
entrance of the house separates two small enclosed
formal gardens with yew hedges of quite simple
design, of broad grass walks, and flower beds.
Another view of the same house and garden by
Mr. Griggs is illustrated on page 185, and shows
the connecting link between the west side of the
house and the orchard. The flagged walk with
its stone seats on each side is finished at the west
end (from which point of view the drawing was
made) by two stone piers similar in character to
those shown in the other view.
