Description

Grade II. A gardeners’ bothy of mid-late C19 date, perhaps designed by David Brandon or A Vernon.
The Gardeners’ Bothy is listed for the following principal reasons: Architectural interest: - the building has an intentionally eye-catching design, which complements the design of the principal house, Rayners House. Historic interest: - the building forms part of the country house and estate which Philip Rose established at Tylers Green. Group value: - with Rayners House, Penn which is listed at Grade II.
The Gardeners' Bothy appears to date from the second or third period of expansion at Rayners and may be the work of David Brandon or A Vernon, both of whom made designs for Rose. See listing description for history and further detail (B2).
