Description

The kitchen garden walls at Kerfield, located on Innerleithen Road in Peebles, date back to the early 19th century. These walls are made of coped whinstone rubble and enclose the former walled garden, creating a boundary between the lodges, which are listed separately. On the south side, there is a decorative tripartite crenellated feature. To the west, the walls adjoin the walled courts of Kerfield Cottage, which is also listed separately. Additionally, two modern houses have been constructed within the garden area.
