The Walled Garden at Ballumbie House, located on Ballumbie Road in Dundee, dates back to 1810. It features a large rectangular plan and is enclosed by a round-coped rubble perimeter. The entrance on the south side has a segmental arch made of ashlar, complete with a moulded impost and a corniced parapet. To the west, there is a coursed rubble summer house built around 1904, which includes metal windows and a stone slate roof, although it is now in a ruinous state with only the roof remaining.
