Details Walled garden, built in the 18th and 19th centuries, located to the north of Skene House (NJ70NE0012) within the designed landscape (NJ70NE0137). The walls are partly stone-built lined with brick except for the the west wall which is wholly of brick. There is fine centre iron gate and twin ogee-roofed gazebos at the south wall, probably of the 1847-50 period. The 1st edition OS map shows greenhouses (now removed) along the inner side of the northwest.
