Standing approximately 2 and 4 metres high respectively, the walls and archway form an irregular shaped courtyard linking the stableblock to the house. The pointed- arched opening is flanked by 3-stage buttresses and surmounted by embattled top, and has a panel carved with a rose above the apex of the arch.
