HOLCOMBE ROGUS HOLCOMBE ROGUS
ST 01 NE
5/126 Kitchen garden walls approximately
- 2 metres north of Holcombe Court
GV II
Kitchen garden walls. Dated 1748. Local stone rubble and much of the inside is
faced with brick; slate coping.
The large kitchen garden occupies a south-facing slope behind Holcombe Court. It is
enclosed on the north, east, west and part of the south sides by tall walls, (the
remainder of the south side is bounded by the service courtyard). The wall ramps up
now and again to accommodate the rising ground. The east side is all stone rubble
and it contains the entrance which is flanked by square section gate posts
surmounted by pineapple vase finials. The date plaque is set into the inner face of
the wall near the right gate post. The inner faces of the other walls are lined
with brick.
These kitchen walls form part of an attractive group of ancillary buildings
associated with Holcombe Court (q.v.) and other buildings at the top end of Holcombe
Rogus village.
