Description

One section of approximately 4m high rubble wall runs north from the stable block and has to its centre a semicircular archway with slate voussoirs, stone coping and pilasters. The walls either side have coping of vertically laid stones and to the right of the main archway is another one that is blocked but probably originally led to the narrow service yard said to have been used for drying clothes.

The second section of similar height rubble wall turns at right angles from that above to form a screen wall behind which is a small area ('ante-yard'). This is at the west end of a track that ran uphill to accommodation at the west end of the kitchen court at the back of the house. At its west end this wall adjoins the south-east corner of the workshops. Offset to the left is a semicircular archway, different from its neighbour in that this one is not dressed and has rubble, rather than slate, voussoirs. Instead it has large urn finials made of cast-iron.

Neither archway is gated.
