Description
The garden walls to the Manor House, likely built around 1700 and restored in 1860, are made of red brick with a pattern of black brick and have a rubble stone plinth in parts. The walls stand approximately 2.5 meters high and extend from the right end of the Manor House, along Main Street, before turning at a right angle to border a track on its left side. Near the corner of the Manor House, there is a round-arched garden doorway with a plank door, and the wall features a ramped top above this doorway. To the left, embedded in the wall, are three tiles inscribed with the years 1475, 1690, and 1860 I.P., which are likely of more recent origin.
