Description

The garden walls at Galltfaenan Hall are tall structures, approximately 4 meters high, made of red and brown brick resting on a low limestone rubble base. They enclose a fin-shaped area that measures about 80 meters long and 50 meters wide, with the western side open towards the house, where a later low brick wall is located. The upper sections of the walls appear to have been raised, likely in the later 19th century, and feature slab coping at the top. There is a segmentally-arched entrance in the center of the south wall, which has a deeply-recessed boarded door, and another entrance is located on the north wall.

Adjoining the south wall is a lean-to glasshouse range from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which has a canted and hipped western projection facing the house. This glasshouse is built on a brick plinth with a glazed upper section and roof. To the south of the glasshouse, there is a lower brick wall, about 2 meters high, topped with stone coping and featuring a simple decorative wrought-iron gate in the center, flanked by plain square piers. This wall extends eastward as a lower rubble wall for approximately 80 meters before returning north to connect with the main enclosure walls.
