Gazebo. c1740 for John Aislabie. Coursed squared gritstone, roof of
massive slabs. Square single-storey building perched on the edge of a cliff
overlooking the valley containing the Rustic Bridges (qv). Doorway on east
side with rock-faced rustication to lintel. Square windows to remaining
sides with plain iron bars and lintel similar to doorway. Projecting
plinth, flat roof. The design is based on a monument traditionally ascribed
to that of the Horatii and Curiatii at Ariccia above Rome; a drawing by
Runciman (mid C18) is preserved in the National Gallery of Scotland. The
Studley version originally had 4 corner pinnacles. (W T C Walker, personal
