Description

The kitchen garden walls at Clarendon House date from the 18th century. They are constructed of brick with concrete copings and stand approximately 4 meters high. The walls feature mid-half-brick pilaster buttresses at 6-meter intervals. They form the north side of the south garden parterre, which includes a central opening with a cast iron gate. The wall returns on the west side, ending with a stone ball finial at the south-west corner, and there is a north wall that also has a central gate. There is an additional wall to the north that encloses a former orchard, which is approximately 5 meters high and has brick-on-edge copings. The bothies on the orchard wall and the former stable block, which is now a house, at the north end of the first enclosure are not of special interest.
