Height varies from nearly five metres at the gatehouse to just over 2 metres at the south gate. Gable coping of small stones set in cement. The stretch along western boundary has a granite bandcourse (possibly a former coping) at a height of about 3 metres. South gateposts are square in section with pyramidical tops; pair of plank gates with long strap hinges. Features inside grounds almost certainly date from 1912-14. A single-storey garden house backing on to western boundary wall. Stone rubble with ashlar dressings. Slated roof, gabled with stone copings and kneelers.
