Description

The walled garden and attached sheds, located approximately seventy-five metres northeast of Egton Manor House, are likely from the 18th century, with some alterations made in the 19th century. The garden walls are constructed of herringbone-tooled sandstone, with the south and east walls featuring internal banding in orange-red brick laid in English garden wall bond. Sandstone ashlar dressings are present, and the shed has a roof covered in pantiles. The walls vary in height and ramp up in places to follow the slope of the ground, topped with flat coping.

A gateway in the south wall includes square-section chamfered piers and a keyed round arch set on moulded imposts, with a moulded cornice beneath an entablature that supports heraldic beasts. The east wall features a keyed segment-arched niche with a seat and a keyed round-arched gateway, while a similar gateway is found in the north wall.

The sheds on the south side consist of a single-storey, five-bay range, with paired board doors in the centre and paired flat arches beneath a chamfered timber lintel at the far right end. The remaining openings are 16-pane sash windows, all with tooled lintels. The structure has corbelled eaves, coped gables, and a central stack. On the left return, there is a louvred owlhole in a chamfered surround at the gable end. This walled garden may have originated from an earlier house that was occupied by the Elwes family until 1869.
