WEST WITTON, North Riding
Belvedere SE 032 889
Temple Farm, across the road from the belvedere, gets its name from the nearby Knights Templar Chapel and does not refer to the summerhouse, also known as The Temple, which is in a former pleasure garden.
The Belvedere was built in 1792 by John Foss of Richmond for T.J.Anderson of Swinithwaite Hall. A staircase rises between the outer and inner walls to a balcony and access to the upper room. There is a carving of a dog over the east door.
