Description

Corsehill Walled Garden, located on Monument Road in Ayr, dates back to the earlier 19th century. This irregularly shaped walled garden measures approximately 4200 square meters and features a prominent point to the southeast, along with lean-to storage sheds against the northern exterior wall. The walls are constructed of sandstone rubble and are coped at the apex.

The entrance to the garden on Monument Road includes square-plan stone gatepiers and low coped quadrant walls, providing access for both vehicles and pedestrians through two-leaf timber gates. Flanking the entrance is a higher wall, while the entrance to Racecourse View features iron gatepiers with both two-leaf and single iron gates, surrounded by a higher rubble wall.
