Description

The garden walls enclosing the pleasure and vegetable gardens that formerly belonged to Fremington Manor House date from the mid-18th century. Constructed in brick with a Flemish bond pattern, the walls form an overall L-shape on the plan. The larger vegetable garden is located on the west side, while the smaller pleasure and kitchen gardens are on the east side, separated by brick walling. There is an entrance gate to the pleasure gardens on the east side, featuring a cambered arch supported by moulded impost blocks, a segmental hoodmould, and wrought iron gates with spear-shafts. The outer face of the south wall has three stone buttresses, and both the south and west walls have inward sloping brick capping.
