Description
These kitchen garden walls are located west and northwest of the stables at Hurstbourne Park. They date to around the late 18th century, with extensions added in the later 19th century. The walls are built in an English garden wall bond using red brick, with some blue vitrified bricks. They feature stone coping and brick gate piers topped with stone ball finials. The walls enclose two large rectangular areas, along with a smaller enclosure to the east. A walled triangular enclosure was added later in the 19th century to the south. Greenhouses that previously stood along the south side of the north wall of the north enclosure have been removed. These walls represent a good example of 18th-century kitchen garden walls associated with a country house.
