Description
The Walled Garden, located about 150 metres north-west of Cholderton Park House, is a garden wall with outbuildings and a pool, built in 1900 by Gerald C. Horsley for H.C. Stephens M.P. The structure features unknapped flintwork with some stone and brick dressings. It primarily encloses a kitchen garden measuring approximately 75 metres by 90 metres and stands about 4 metres high, divided into bays by full-height offset piers. There are six bays on the east and west sides and three bays on the north side, which includes various outbuildings and a recessed semi-circular archway in a stone panel. This archway is approached by a podium and eight side steps on the north side, which lead to a tank room set partly below ground. The garden side of the walls is lined with brick. At the south ends, the walls splay towards a circular pool, which has a stone perimeter wall about 0.5 metres high and is said to be 5 metres deep. The pool, with a diameter of 20 metres, is surrounded by 31 randomly sized tanks, likely for aquatic plants. On the south side, there are stone steps, a central stair, and two flanking stairs with serpentine walls that lead to a gateway facing Cholderton Park House, which is an important part of the setting.
