Building Description
The garden for the Chiswick House is large and well manicured. The garden is lined by a small metal fence. Various sized shrubs, bushes, and small trees are meticulously place throughout the garden, guiding the visitor along. In between the greenery, numerous statues and sculptures placed, bringing art and culture into these spaces. There is one main gravel pathway in the garden leading towards the Chiswick House.

The garden, with all of its greenery and artwork, gives symbolic meaning towards the style, elevating the social structures that it entertained through movement and sight.
