An early C19 walled vegetable garden for the Buckland Estate. Brick in this area is mostly associated with the construction of The Brecknock and Abergavenny Canal and The Hay Railway in the early C19. OS map survey 1889 shows a simple quartered layout with sheds along the inside of the N wall as well as some sheds on the outside.
The farmhouse is C16-C17 in origin, remodelled later, particularly mid to later C19 as part of a model farm development. Previously called Wern y Berllan and appears as such and T- shaped on Tithe map of 1841, together with a farm range mainly to rear which pre-dates the expansion. OS map 1889 shows development complete. Buckland House later Hall nearby was first recorded as a Jacobean mansion c 1600 and was rebuilt for Roderick Gwynne c 1775. From mid C19 until its sale in 1935 Buckland was the property of the Gwynne Holford family. The house was rebuilt following a fire in 1898.
Four stretches of walling creating a rectangular enclosure with a range of potting, storage and and cart sheds built against the outer face of the N wall. The wall is of stone and brick: the approach wall has an outer skin of brick and an inner of stone; flat stone coping. Wide basket-arched entrances in centre of E,W and S walls with rough voussoirs and keystone flanked by stone buttresses with offsets; small pedestrian doorway in N wall with bell above. N wall is of stone and the single storey sheds with single pitch Welsh slate roofs extend along its complete outside length, former interior buildings now demolished. Tooled stone dressings to openings: windows are 9 pane hoppers with stone lintels set in reveals; boarded doors. Centre right a 3 bay cartshed with chamfered wooden posts on stone plinths; tall chimneys to ends. Cobbled aprons; stone piers to yard entrance.
