Description

Walled garden, extant 1840, on a rectangular plan with coursed rubble stone boundary wall to perimeter having overgrown coping. Now disused. Set in grounds shared with Castleboro House.

Appraisal

A substantial, albeit neglected walled garden contributing positively to the group and setting values of the Castleboro House estate. NOTE: No evidence survives of the 'handsome and lofty conservatory [with] a grapery extending west [and] a peachery of similar extent [extending] east' (Lacy 1852, 245).
