Description
The garden walls and railings adjoining Frayne House to the north were likely built in the mid to late 19th century. They feature dressed stone side walls and gate piers that are almost of ashlar quality, along with wrought-iron railings at the front set on a low stone plinth. The walls and railings enclose a rectangular garden in front of Frayne House. The railings have a square-section spear-head design and square-section standards topped with urn finials. The top rail is ramped up at each end. Each of the flanking gateways includes pairs of square piers with shallow pyramidal caps and wrought-iron gates with arrow-head railings, a dog rail, dog bars, and a curved top rail. The low side walls have flat copings that are ramped up at each end.
