Pudding house at Montecute

This elegant pavilion is one of two ‘pudding houses' set into opposite corners of the East Court. Their sweet toothed nickname stems from Tudor and Stuart times, when parties would retire here from the Dining Room to savour their pudding in the splendour of the grandest part of the garden.

The pudding houses get their warm glow from local Ham stone, which was used to build Montacute.
