Description

The garden wall and gate of Flanders Farmhouse are constructed from roughly coursed local limestone rubble, topped with a coping course. The gate features square ashlar piers with moulded caps. It includes wrought iron double gates that have swept heads and arrowheaded finials, with additional scrolls above the top rails. The wall extends to the right, leading to a small outbuilding located directly in front of the northeast end of the house.
