Baylis House, Slough
Attractive brick facade with its regular grid of windows. Pretty much all the ornament is expressed by means of the brickwork, e.g. the arches over the ground-floor windows. It was built c1696 for Gregory Hascard, Dean of Windsor, and altered and enlarged in the C18th and C19th. Grade I listed.
It is now a hotel, restaurant and conference centre.
The date of the photo is uncertain.

Gates in the Park
This gateway leads into the former walled garden of nearby Baylis House, a late 17C country house.
The house is now a hotel but the walled garden along with the rest of the grounds is part of a big area of park and playing fields.

Slough: Baylis Pond
Ducks struggle to cope with a frozen surface after a cold January night.
Baylis Pond is in what used to be the grounds of Baylis House which now form a public park. The 1881 Edition of the Ordnance Survey mapping shows the pond with a far more formal rectangular shape. At some point the south-western corner has been filled in, all the other corners rounded off, and some bird-nesting islands introduced.
