Description

Railings, walling, and a gazebo are located in the garden of Cross Farmhouse, dating from the 18th century. The structure features a dwarf rubble wall topped with spear-capped railings and urns placed at intervals, along with a gate that matches the style. The wall extends to the right and has a section on the left with cement capping that ends at the gazebo. The gazebo is square in shape with rubble walls and a pyramidal slate roof topped with a finial. It has a cruciform casement on two faces. At the rear, there is a tall rubble wall enclosing the west side of the garden, capped with double Roman tiles and bricks. This wall continues along the north side of the garden in a matching style. The attached outbuildings are not considered of special interest.
