'Gazebo' has large rectangular windowopening under swept moulded coping: return cornice has Lombard frieze. 4-pane sash in architrave to bathroom. The chief interest of the otherwiseconventional exterior elevation of this house lies in the unrestrained andunconventional use of everyday building materials as decoration. Bands ofglazed bricks run horizontally across the facade with in flat areas ofcolour in constantly shifting zig-zags. Patterned tiles are used ascladding to the 1st floor bathroom which is supported at its outer corner ontwo upended salt-glazed sewer pipes. A Biblical scene, some of the elementssome of which are upside down, decorates the gable over the canted bay.Interior: ground floor.

Re-used late C18 fireplace in Adam style to rearwall. Landing: tiled floor, tiled dado, wall above dado tiled in largepanels with borders of plain tiles in shifting colours.

Rear scullery andoutside toilet also lined with decorative and some Dutch pictorial tiles,arranged for the most part in panel form.
