Ston Easton Park, Ston Easton
Image: © Stephen Richards Taken: 13 May 2004
An eleven-bay facade broken up in the rhythm 1-1-2-3-2-1-1 dating from c1755 and concealing an early-C17th house. The two bays at either end were added around ten or twenty years later. Decoration is sparing - urns above the attic, central festoon and Doric doorcase. The later contributions have been attributed on stylistic grounds to Thomas and William Paty, prolific masons and architects from Bristol. Grade I listed. The house is now a hotel.
