Description

The kitchen garden walls at Bodysgallen Hall consist of two connected walled gardens. The walls stand approximately 3 meters high. The main garden measures around 80 meters by 50 meters but becomes narrower at the northeast end. The northwest and southwest walls are made of mid-19th century hand-moulded brick with replacement coping, while the southeast wall is constructed from earlier rubble stone, featuring some boulder footings and weathered, overgrown coping above a slate course. The northeast wall is shared with the Dutch garden, which is listed separately.

The northwest wall includes a single entrance with a pointed arch. The southwest wall, which has been heightened with late 19th century brick, features a pointed entrance with a studded door. The southeast wall also has a single pointed entrance, and the northeast wall has a renewed lintel for a doorway at the southeast end.

The outer southwest section of the garden is approximately 50 meters square and has rubble stone walls. The northwest wall is curved and includes a stone pointed doorway. The southwest wall is irregular and situated on higher ground, incorporating an alcove made of reconstituted stone that features Tuscan pilasters and an entablature, with a roughcast interior that is scribed. The southeast wall has two stone segmental-headed doorways adjacent to the main garden, one of which has a studded door, along with another similar doorway at the southwest end.
