Description
The Walled Garden at Pitgaveny House is a large L-shaped structure built in the late 18th century, with possible elements from the earlier 19th century. It features coped rubble walls and includes a re-used 17th century moulded architrave at the southern entrance. Internally, the garden is divided into two sections by a longitudinal wall, which suggests that the two parts may have been constructed at different times.
