In the early 19th century a park drive led from Higher Water to Mount Pleasant circa 800 metres north-west of the house, on the northern park boundary. Here gates flanked by massive circular-section rubble-stone piers gave access through the park wall to a circuit of walks and carriage drives to the north-west of the road from Gappah to Biddlecombe.
