Description

The garden wall to the west and south of the Manor House is a mid-19th century structure made of coursed rubble, with its exterior face painted white. This tall wall features triangular coping stones and encloses the garden area. It extends approximately 15 metres to the west before turning southeast for about 70 metres, where it ramps down at the southern end. A lower section of the wall, topped with round coping stones, has an off-centre gate opening and runs northeast for around 30 metres, continuing north for about 20 metres to connect with a barn on the east side of the Manor House. This wall is included for its group value with the Manor House.
