25/370 Walled garden to north of Garden Cottage

II GV

Garden wall with attached bothies and greenhouse range. Early-mid C19 and mid-late C19. Wall of red brick, mostly in English bond with top in Flemish bond; bothies of coursed rubblestone and brick with Welsh slate roofs; greenhouse range of glass on brick dwarf wall. The wall encloses a near-triangular garden, the corners curved and with entrances located near them (2 at south-west corner). The eastern half of the northern wall has the lean-to bothies on the outer side and the lean-to greenhouse range on the inner side. The wall is approximately 3½ metres tall, ranging up to approximately 4 metres above the bothies; on the outer side is an offset below the thinner top section, and evenly-spaced raked butresses (set at intervals of approximately 3 metres); slightly oversailing flat coping of large blue bricks; entrances have keyed flat brick arches and board doors with decorative iron hinges (doors mostly collapsed or removed). The greenhouse range is very derelict, but retains glazing bars and iron vent-opening mechanism; manufacturer's plate bears legend "W T Revitt, Olney". Bothies, also very derelict, have small-pane wooden casement windows with flat arches, iron-framed skylights, entrance from garden, board doors, and former privy; small addition at west end is of brick and has single-light windows with decorative, honeycomb-style, metal glazing bars (windows similar to those of the nearby Garden Cottage (qv) which is dated 1863).
