Mountain biking

Built in the late 1730s it is a significant and very early example of a ferme ornee and these days still serves as a shelter for a herd of rare cattle. On one side the arched alcove in its tower contains a seat from which to take in the view across the fields outside the garden wall. It’s listed by Historic England as Grade 2*.
