Kitchen Garden Walls, Gardeners Cottage And Offices And Tool Shed About 100 Metres South West Of Antony House

Kitchen garden walls, a gardener’s cottage and offices, and a tool shed, dating from the early to mid-18th century, with later 19th and 20th-century alterations. The walls are constructed of brick in Flemish bond, and banded rubble, with slate copings. The tool shed is of banded rubble with a slate roof, while the gardener's cottage and offices are of random rubble, partly rendered, also with slate roofs.

The walls enclose a roughly rectangular area of about one acre. To the north-east is an L-shaped range of cottage and offices, with the tool shed to the north. The north-west section of the kitchen garden walls extends for approximately 60 metres, standing about 5 metres high, with a central doorway with a segmental head. A tall segmental arch with a limestone keystone and pilasters to each side marks the south-east range, which is approximately 70 metres long, and now has 20th-century double wooden gates. The wall steps back and continues for a further 20 metres to the north-east, with another segmental-headed doorway. The north-east side adjoins the rear of the L-shaped range, and in that section is constructed of brick, with a portion of banded rubble, possibly belonging to an earlier phase of building.

The L-shaped range encloses a yard. The south-east range has three 20th-century windows and a door. The south-west range has three two-light casement windows and a door, each with a gable over, a single light to the side, and a door to the right end. Brick dressings and crested ridge tiles adorn the slate roofs. The rear of the south-west range has three 20th-century French windows with fanlights, flanked by three-light casements, and a door to the right end. The tool shed is one-and-a-half storeys high, with bracketed eaves. It has two round-arched brick openings to the front, with double doors and a two-light casement to the right. The right side has a two-light casement in the gable end. The left side has a loading door in the gable end. Attached to the right side is a section of brick wall approximately 3 metres long and 3 metres high, featuring a round-arched gateway. This wall continues for about 10 metres as a screen wall constructed of banded rubble. The rear of the tool shed is faced with granite quoins.
