Description

A kitchen garden rectangular in plan, with terrace at the S end and SE pavilion. The kitchen garden is enclosed by rubble stone walls with saddle-back tile coping and an inner face of brick. The NW and NE angles are curved (although the wall has been partly taken down to the NE). The E and W sides are stepped up the slope from S to N and each has a doorway with elliptical arch and replaced door. The lower S wall, facing the terrace, has central square freestone piers with ball finials to double iron gates with overthrow. A wider opening is to the W side.

At the external SE corner is a tall square single-storey pavilion of rubble stone with hipped stone-tile roof and apex finial, and hooded mullioned windows of reconstituted stone. The entrance on the W side faces the raised terrace. The doorway to the L has a moulded drip stone and replaced door. It has a 2-light window to its R. The S side has a 3-light window, the E side a 2-light window offset to the L. Stone steps abut the E wall. The S terrace has central stone steps in its S revetment. It projects further out to the SW angle where it has low splayed buttresses to the snecked stone revetment and retains part of a former open balustrade of reconstituted stone.
