Description
The forecourt walls and attached outbuilding, likely built around 1730, are made of rubble with cut dressings, and the outbuilding features a roof of Lakeland slate. The low, thick wall has squat square gatepiers with attached jambs and pyramidal caps. To the right, there is an opening with re-used chamfered jambs from a 17th century or older doorway. The wall on the left returns to connect with the outbuilding, which has two square stone-surround windows, a coped left gable with moulded kneelers, and boarded doors at the rear. The rear wall connects the outbuilding to the kitchen wing of Orchard Vale and features a pair of slender rusticated gatepiers with swept and moulded caps.
