Description
The kitchen garden at Maes Manor is rectangular in shape and features a terrace at the south end along with a southeast pavilion. It is enclosed by rubble stone walls topped with saddle-back tile coping, and the inner face is made of brick. The northwest and northeast corners of the garden are curved, although part of the wall has been removed at the northeast. The east and west sides of the garden rise in steps from south to north, each with a doorway featuring an elliptical arch and a replaced door. The lower south wall, which faces the terrace, includes central square freestone piers topped with ball finials, supporting double iron gates with an overthrow. There is also a wider opening on the west side.
At the external southeast corner stands a tall, square, single-storey pavilion constructed of rubble stone, topped with a hipped stone-tile roof and an apex finial. The pavilion features hooded mullioned windows made of reconstituted stone. The entrance on the west side faces the raised terrace, with a doorway to the left that has a moulded drip stone and a replaced door. To the right of this doorway is a 2-light window. The south side of the pavilion has a 3-light window, while the east side has a 2-light window that is offset to the left. Stone steps are adjacent to the east wall. The south terrace includes central stone steps in its south revetment and extends further out to the southwest angle, where it has low splayed buttresses made of snecked stone and retains part of a former open balustrade of reconstituted stone.
