Description
Walled garden, c.1770, on a wedge-shaped plan. Random rubble stone walls (ivy-clad) with lime mortar, and round-headed pedestrian opening having rendered surround. Set in grounds shared with Mount Congreve.
Appraisal
An attractive mature walled garden that is of interest as evidence of the various activities necessary in the maintenance of a large-scale estate. The construction of the walls serves to assimilate the composition into the landscape.
