Statement of Interest

The Walled Garden is situated to the NE of Bargaly House (see separate listing), which was built for Andrew Heron. A "great orchard dyke" or walled garden was built in 1695, by Andrew Heron, who had a reputation as a botanist and gardener. The "Plan of the Woods of Bargaly", 1772 (RHP 677) depicts a "New Garden", which appears to be on the site of the present Walled Garden. Thus, the Walled Garden could date from 1772 or could be a later replacement on the same site.
