Description
The walled garden at Treberfydd is almost rectangular, with angled corners at the north. It features arched entrances at the midpoints of the south, southeast, and southwest corners, along with a less elaborate and remodelled entrance at the midpoint of the north wall. The main path connects these three entrances and the main house to the gardener's cottage, running just inside the south wall. A path crosses this main route at right angles, linking the south entrance with the archway in the center of the north wall, which leads to the park. The walls are constructed of coursed and roughly dressed stone, topped with flat brick coping that is saddleback in some areas and stepped to follow the slope of the ground. The main entrances feature chamfered Tudor arches, flanked by deep stepped buttresses with ashlar offsets. The wall rises above the arches to mimic battlements, incorporating a carved shield on the wall facing the house at the southeast entrance. The planked doors are ledged and studded. The garden is adjacent to Garden Cottage, which was the former head gardener's house and is listed separately.
