ORANGERIES 

Orangeries have been around since the 1700’s and were very fashionable amongst the wealthy and the elite. In early days they were used for growing citrus trees in a controlled environment. 

So what is an orangery and how does it differ from a conservatory? 

Over the years the differences have become less and less. Basically an orangery tends to have more brickwork and less glass than a conservatory, whereas a conservatory is mainly made from glass, is normally constructed from uPVC and will have a full glass roof.  
 
Conservatories will nearly always have a sloped or angled roof, but an orangery roof will be flat. 
 
Probably the biggest difference is that an orangery will usually feature similar materials used in the construction of the house such as brickwork, stone, or timber so that it appears that it’s an original part of the house rather than an extension.
