Description
The garden walls to the rear of the almshouses, including a former bakehouse, are constructed from brown brick on a limestone rubble base and built in Flemish bond with limestone block copings. The main wall encloses the garden area to the north and west of the almshouses, reaching a maximum height of 3.5 meters. It features plain brick buttressing spaced approximately 6 meters apart and curves in a concave arc from near St Dyfnog's Well at the western end to a point about 18 meters north of the almshouse block at the eastern end. Here, the wall makes a right-angle turn and extends for about 15 meters, ending near the right-hand wing of the almshouses. This section has an irregular breach in the center and includes a small adjoining bakehouse block on the left, opposite the northwest corner of the almshouses. The bakehouse is a small limestone rubble structure with a mono-pitched slate roof and two plain openings on its southern front, along with a squat brick chimney on the left. To the east of the bakehouse, there is a section of uncoped limestone rubble wall, approximately 15 meters long and 1.8 meters high, which runs at right angles to the front-facing stretch of the garden wall. This section ends at a pair of modern iron gates.
At the western end of the garden, the brick wall concludes near the well and continues as a rough-dressed limestone rubble wall, which closes the garden on the southern side, running parallel to a stream that flows eastward from the well. This wall varies in height from 0.6 meters to 2 meters.
