Apparently, if you stand on the roof of the Hall it looks like a bridge and the lake looks like a river. It is a clever use of perspective, enhanced by the island, also created around 1780, which creates the illusion of a much larger stretch of river. So there is a suggestion that it is a Folly Bridge to impress visitors to the Hall and not a Boat House.
