Description
The walls, gateways, and railings along the front of the Estate House date from around 1840, the same period as the house itself. They are constructed from ashlar stone and feature a low wall with a moulded coping. The iron railings are adorned with trefoiled, leaf-like finials. There are seven square gate piers topped with moulded caps, while taller sections of the wall on the left and right do not have railings.
