It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.[1] HistoryThe house was built in 1872 for Horace Dormer Trelawny and designed by the Chester architect John Douglas.[2] In 1907 it was damaged by fire and following this it was rebuilt and extended, the architect again being John Douglas; at this time the owner was Thorneycroft Vernon.[3] In the later part of the 20th century it was in use as a nursing home.[1][5] Its stable courtyard, also designed by John Douglas, is listed at Grade II.[4] ArchitectureShotwick Park is built in brick with a tiled roof in neo-Elizabethan style.[5] The main front has seven bays with each external bay forming a turret; the turret on the left is larger and higher than that on the right. Both turrets are polygonal in shape, each with a pyramidal roof having a lead finial and a weather vane. The front has two storeys, other than the left turret that has three storeys. The central bay projects forwards and is canted. The roofs are steeply-sloping and are hipped; over each of the central five bays is a hipped gable. Tall chimneys rise from the roofs.[1] The architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner in the Buildings of England series describes it as a "fine" house.[5] In Douglas' biography, Edward Hubbard refers to its "massive solidity and indefinable form, its heavy hipped and gabled roofs and its elaborate use of brick".[6] The architectural writers Figueirdo and Treuherz comment that the house "is an effective composition from a distance, but close to, the detailing is dull".[7] See also{{portal|Cheshire}}
