Kitchen garden walls, gardener's cottage and offices and tool shed.

Walls in brick and banded rubble, tool shed in banded rubble with slate roof, gardener's cottage and offices in random rubble, partly rendered, with slate roofs. The walls enclose a roughly rectangular area of about one acre; to the north east there is an L-plan range of cottage and offices, with the tool shed to the north. The kitchen garden walls are in Flemish bond, about 5 metres high with slate copings; along the north west range they extend about 60 metres with a central segmental- headed doorway. The southeast range has a tall segmental arch with limestone keystone and pilaster to each side, C20 double wooden gates, this range about 70 metres long. The wall is stepped back and continued about a further 20 metres to north east, with a segmental-headed doorway. The north east side adjoins the rear of the L-plan range, and at the rear of the buildings is in brick, with a section of banded rubble, possibly of an earlier phase of building. The L-plan range encloses a yard; the buildings are single storey, the range to south east with 3 C20 windows and door. The south west range has three 2-light casements and door, each with gable over, single light to side and door to end right. Brick dressings and crested ridge tiles to slate roofs. The rear of the south west range has 3 C20 French windows with fanlights with 3-light casement to each side and door to end right. The tool shed is of 1½ storeys, with bracketed eaves. There are 2 round-arched brick openings to front with double doors and 2-light casement to right. Right side has 2-light casement in gable end. Left side has loading door in gable end. Attached to right is a section of brick wall about 3 metres long and about 3 metres high, with a round-arched gateway; this wall is continued for about 10 metres in banded rubble as a screen wall.
