Description

The walls surrounding the kitchen garden at Merthyr Mawr House are high and feature brick inner faces with random rubble outer faces, except for the southern wall, which has stone inner and brick outer faces. There are no internal dividing walls. The northern and southern walls each have doorways on the western side at the back of the stable block; these doorways have segmental heads, with a boarded door on the northern side and a cast iron gate on the southern side.

Against the northern inner wall, there are brick foundations of a former peach house and a vinery with vine arches. To the right of the vinery, there is an additional doorway. On the outside of the northern wall, there is a lean-to stove house made of random rubble with a slate roof, which contains a fireplace and a flue leading to a cavity in the wall. Further east, there is another lean-to bothy and stove house constructed of rubble stone, featuring a roof of renewed slates and corrugated plastic.

The eastern wall has, on its outer side, two small lean-to pigsties with walled pens. In the southeast corner, there is an attached rubble stone wall, and set back from this wall, the southern garden wall has a doorway with a segmental head and a cast iron gate. Against the southern wall, there is a greenhouse on a brick plinth with vine arches, featuring an asymmetrical gable made of curved cast iron trusses and curved glass. A door has been inserted in the southern wall of the greenhouse under a segmental head.
