Description

The kitchen garden walls north of Miskin Manor are a rectangular structure measuring approximately 90 meters east to west by 30 meters, with walls that rise to 3.5 meters high. The walls are primarily built of buttressed brick, except for the northern wall, which features an outer face of rubble stone. In the southern wall, there is a central gate screen made up of red-brick piers and stone copings, which were originally pyramidal but are now damaged. This gate screen leads to railings on a dwarf wall and includes a central iron gate with an overthrow. To the west of the screen, part of the wall has collapsed, while to the right, there is an arched doorway. Inside the garden, there is a central brick-lined channel that runs north to south.

Against the northern wall, offset to the west side, stands a former lean-to greenhouse that retains curved iron trusses, which were added in the early 20th century. Immediately to the south of this is a late 19th-century brick former propagating house. The northern wall also features an arched doorway, again offset to the west side. Centrally located on the exterior of this wall is a former lean-to boiler house constructed of rubble stone with brick jambs, which has a doorway on the west side and a window on the east side. Set back from the eastern end is a lean-to bothy, also made of rubble stone and brick jambs, which has a door and window on the north side and a window on the west wall. Inside this bothy is a late 19th-century brick fireplace. At the northwest corner, there is a stub wall that was part of a former greenhouse.
