Description

The Walled Garden at Stroquhan is likely from the early 19th century. It features a roughly quadrangular enclosure with a curved wall at the southeast, which connects to the stables at the southwest. The walls are built from rubble and are partly lined with brick, topped with ashlar coping. There is a circular pier at the northwest corner next to the gate, along with a small lean-to boiler house on the north wall and a small glass house.
