The17th century rubble garden wall terminates at the four angles in rounds or look-outs averaging 13 ½ feet in diameter and 12 ½ feet in height; on the south-west round a sundial, formed from a skewback removed from the collegiate church, is inset; the upper and under surfaces being wrought as dials. Tracery details from the church lie on the north terrace. Over the stream and north-north-west of the house are remains of 17th century buildings, apparently a dam and sluice serving Seton mill; at base remains of three massive piers or cutwaters can be traced, while in the upper partare windows of the period. On the left bank of the stream south-west of the church are remains of buildings known as the ‘priests' houses’, but the masonry is apparently of the 17th century; a few yards southward are traces of a large gateway c. 1620.
