Outside:
The grounds encompass the property on all four sides and offer areas of formality and informality. There are steps leading down to a good-sized lawn, which is ideal for croquet or cricket, further areas that are given over to various planting, such as rhododendron, hydrangea and azalea, along with further terracing, patio and lawned areas. The whole is enclosed, predominantly by hedging, but with some attractive stone walling. There are also a number of species of trees, to include some magnificent magnolia and cherry, along with apple, pear and even fig. As well as the fantastic views, the church itself sits close to the property and is a wonderfully interesting & historic building in its own right and serves as the perfect back drop to the garden on that side.
Outbuildings:
There are a number of stone-built outbuildings described briefly as follows -
Detached garaging/workshop and store. This is made up of three areas on the ground floor and benefits from a second floor, which would have been the hay loft. These buildings offer a variety of uses and benefit from power, lighting and water supply. In one of the garages, there are even the original stable dividers.
Attached to the property by way of a covered porch, there are fuel stores for wood and coal and another room, which was originally the dairy. In here you will find some interesting original character features such as the ovens and flagstone floors.
