Walled garden with ha-ha. Early C19. Magnesian limestone and brick.
Approximately 75 metres square, the south-east side open to the drive but
protected by a ha-ha, and the other sides enclosed by walls approx. 3 metres
high. The ha-ha is faced with magnesian limestone dry rubble, with rounded
coping ramped up at the corners to meet the descending ramps of the side
walls; the side and rear walls are of coursed magnesian limestone rubble with
red brick lining to the inner sides, and flat stone coping, and in the centre
of each is a round-headed gateway, that on the side next to the house
containing an iron gate and wrought-iron fleur-de-lys "fanlight",
and the others closed by doors which have fanlights with V-glazinq bars. The
north-west, or back wall, has marks of a former continuous greenhouse.
