Garden wall and ha-ha. Late C18, probably 1798 as house (qv). Coursed squared stone and coursed rubble. Rubble-walled ha-ha in front of house, approximately 0.75 metres high with flat coping, curves in a bow and is ramped up either side of bow to form wall approximately 1½ metres high on right and 3 metres high on left. On the right, the return of the wall is broken by a gateway having square-section piers with plinths and chamfered capstones; the wall then returns to house, ramping up over doorway beside the outbuilding wing. On the left, the return wall has buttresses and where it turns to return to the house there is, to its rear, a derelict privy building containing a 3-seater privy in the front section and a door from there into a rear section, formerly containing a single-seater privy (now removed).
