Statement of Interest

In an A-Group with Tertowie House, Stable Courtyard and Nuclear Bunker. The walled garden situated to the east of Tertowie House, and an important feature of the fine designed landscape complementing the house, is a rare survival of an early high-walled garden with paths laid out and (until fairly recently, 2004) well tended with a variety of shrubs. The fine stonework is in remarkably good condition.
