Description

The walls to the walled garden at Huntercombe Manor date from the 16th century and are constructed of red brick, standing approximately 10 feet high. The walls are L-shaped in plan and feature seven entrances, six of which have wrought iron gates—five are modern pairs and one is an early 19th-century perpendicular pattern. The entrances include three set into the wall: one has a semicircular arch, another has a cambered relieving arch, and the third features a wooden lintel. There are three pairs of gate piers topped with decorative elements: one pair has stone urns, another pair has stone pyramids, and the last pair has flat coping stones topped by flattened stone pyramids. In the north-east corner, there is a large brick pier capped with a stone pineapple. Additionally, there is a small square opening with a wrought iron grating.
