Description

The gate piers, gate, wall, and outhouse at King's Farmhouse date from around 1800. They are constructed from ashlar, iron, coursed rubble stone, and feature a Collyweston slate roof. Along Digby Drive, there is a pair of octagonal ashlar gate piers, each approximately 2.5 meters high and topped with a stone ball. A plain iron gate is situated between the piers. Extending in both directions from the gate, there is a stone-coped wall about 1.5 meters high. At the left end of the wall, there is a small single-storey outhouse with a pyramidal roof. This structure is included for its group value.
