Over the sloping wall one gels a fairly comprehensive view of 
the gardens and their outbuildings. The old sheepfold and 
cow barn in the far corner have been stripped of their stalls 
and converted into the pleasantest kind of shadowy loggias 
The garden, sheltered by the erstwhile farm buildings, is a 
veritable sun trap, and its design is a splendid example of 
directness and restfulness; a lily lank at one end and an 
Italian well head set effectively in the center turf panel 
On the upper terrace 
stands an ancient 
sun-dial supported on 
a tall stone shaft, the 
focus of architectural 
interest at that point 
At the left of the dove 
cote a stone-piered gate¬ 
way gives upon the gar¬ 
den {shown at the right) 
from the grounds lying 
upon the lower slope
