Wrest Park - Petit Trianon
Image: © Rob Farrow Taken: 5 May 2014
The "Petit Trianon" at Wrest Park is a single storey building created using split logs mostly placed vertically, but with a diamond pattern over the entrance. It is built on a timber frame sitting on a low brick wall, with a conspicuous brick chimney and a tiled roof. It is in effect a "play house" as the original "Petit Trianon" was for Marie Antoinette at Versailles. It EH Grade II listed - see http://list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1402866
