Description
The Walled Garden at the Roman Camp Hotel in Callander is a 19th century U-shaped garden located to the southeast of the hotel. An opening in the wall to the east provides access to a three-sided addition that forms a small enclosure.
Historical maps indicate that there was once a wall enclosing the southern boundary, but this wall no longer exists. The curved three-sided garden now faces an adjacent rhododendron garden. At the center of the garden is a richly carved salvaged Antique Italian Gothic wellhead. The eastern addition was likely intended as a burial enclosure, but it was never fully developed as there are no plaques or memorial stones present. As of 2004, the garden is being used as a kitchen garden.
The materials used in the construction include random rubble for the walled garden and the addition, with copes set on their ends. There are also iron railings along part of the enclosure to the east.
