Description
The original buildings in Leazes Park add to the character and quality of the park. The Boatman’s Hut is a small square building. It is predominantly green and cream painted wood, but has a lower course of bricks. The entrance on the east face is a double door, painted green to match the rest of the woodwork. A pyramidal roof tops the building and overhangs on each side. LOCAL LIST
