Devon
South Hams
Blackawton
Grid Ref : SX8170051690
Summary : Situated about 60 metres to the south of the ruins of Oldstone Mansion are the remains of an 18th century walled kitchen garden. The walls are constructed from slate rubble and red brick in Flemish bond. The garden comprises an almost square on plan enclosure with tall stone rubble walls. The north west side had a gateway with a segmental slate arch, a round archway to the park and on the right hand (west) corner a buttress with set-offs. The north east side facing the park has a lower red brick wall in Flemish bond ramped up at the ends where it meets the north west and south east walls. There are 20th century farm buildings built inside against the south west wall which has been heightened in concrete blocks and breached at the centre.
