Full Description
Possibly 1783, or early 19th century, square walled garden on west facing slope. Coursed rubble with cherry cocking and with tooled rounded ashlar cope. Entrance in centre of cast wall.
Former Rogart Manor Built in 1776, now replaced by that of 1883 (no longer Parish manse). Exceptionally fine walling, using traditional methods and skills that are difficult to date precisely. However "new outbuildings" were constructed in 1783. <1>
