If you were on the other side of this summer house, then you'd think this was a one storey building. And behind you would be something much bigger. Clue: mid-southern England.
Crumbs. Looks a bit like the orangery at Frampton on Severn - but it isn't. (I know, I know, we're supposed to say what it IS, not what it isn't. But I'm flummoxed.)
Of course I know where this is - I'd recognise that cloud anywhere - but I'm not going to say because this is number 46 and the last "Where's That Then?" was number 46. And that can't be right.
The cloud is in Wales so that can't be right. The clue is useless - mid-south - does that mean half way between the middle and the South coast. I wish it were Cliveden but I seem to remember the big summerhouse was torched. Give up.
No Phil it ain't, sorry. The trouble is the view from the other side is always the one that's usually shown. Nobody seems to bother to go round into the lane like what I did.

I am a designer, writer and photographer who spends all his time looking at England, particularly buildings and the countryside. But I have a leaning towards the slightly odd and neglected, the unsung elements that make England such an interesting place to live in. I am the author and photographer of over 25 books, in particular Unmitigated England (Adelphi 2006), More from Unmitigated England (Adelphi 2007), Cross Country (Wiley 2011), The Cigarette Papers (Frances Lincoln 2012), Preposterous Erections (Frances Lincoln 2012) and English Allsorts (Adelphi 2015)

Preposterous Erections
"Enchanting...delightful". The Bookseller "Cheekily named" We Love This Book
The Cigarette Papers
"Unexpectedly pleasing and engrossing...beautifully illustrated". The Bookseller
Cross Country
"Until the happy advent of Peter Ashley's Cross Country it has, ironically, been foreigners who have been best at celebrating Englishness". Christina Hardyment / The Independent

Petworth ?
No result yet. Sleep on it.

Come on, I didn't think it would be that difficult. Final clue: English Heritage.
It's not round the back of one of those castellated railway tunnels is it?

One last uncertain throw of the dice: Wardour Castle?
Phew! Wilko Wins. It is indeed the summer house (?) at Old Wardour Castle on the Wiltshire / Dorset borders.
I was married there once and didn't recognise .. says a lot really
