Walled garden of stone rubble with roughly shaped stone parapet. In the S wall a pair of stone gatepiers with stone ball finials form the entrance to the garden and are aligned with the main entrance to the house. The E wall is shared with the walled garden E of the house and has an arched entrance connecting the two gardens c3m south of the house.
Reason for designation
