Description

The wall of the walled garden is a perimeter wall surrounding a 20th-century house, likely built in the 18th century. It is constructed from coursed rubble stone, measuring about 0.3 meters thick and resting on a slightly wider base that is approximately 0.4 meters high. The wall reaches a height of about 4 meters and features occasional stepped buttresses, with the height increasing along the north side. On the west side, there is a blocked opening with a timber lintel, as well as a large rounded archway that has 20th-century wrought iron gates positioned approximately in the center.
