Description
1906, Sir Robert Lorimer. Rectangular-plan, walled garden terraces formerly associated with Minto House (demolished 1992/93).
The walled garden is 90 metres in length, comprising three partitions set over three terraced levels. The walls are of squared-and-snecked rubble with cuboid balustrades, carved scroll abutments and flat-coping stones with a bevelled edge. There are two bowed sections to the north wall and buttressing to the south retaining wall. There is a twin stair at the south entrance to the central partition. Stone steps link the various levels. There is a rectangular-plan, stone-edged flowerbed to the centre of the westernmost partition.
