Full Description
Built against a north wall, measuring 37 m long, of concrete rendered rubble stone, with the ends rising at an angle to meet the wall head which is surmounted by six stone finials. This is the north wall of the greenhouse built circa 1900. The raised garden bed reflects the floor area of the greenhouse with traces of the floor surviving. Behind the stone revetting on the east side, there are traces of a brick wall, possibly the base of the front wall which held the glass. To the north (rear) side of the north wall is the walled garden stone museum (MAB12834).
