Full Description

{2} The 1812 survey shows a small building at the junction of two of Fawsley Park's avenues, where both avenues finish at their eastern extent in 1812. The building is not shown on other maps of the estate.

[HER note 18/10/2012: could this be a slightly mis-located building on the location of this mound, which clearly sits within the main tree avenue running from Fawsley Hall?]
