The front entrance and facade has some fine frieze art containing foliage, flowers and crowns. The Orangery also has decorative frieze art and stands nearby in the gardens. This is also foliage and includes two figures, a man and a woman by the doorway.
Both buildings are the work of Clephane, a French architect who built Wrest Park house as we see it today in 1834-6.
