Blackadder House, Walled Garden, Summerhouse And Outbuildings

2-storey, octagonal-plan summer house (sited to centre of N wall of walled garden), of finely-droved ashlar with polished ashlar recesses dressings, except deeply-droved/fluted ashlar band course at cill-height. Flanked to either side by monopitch rubble outbuildings with droved ashlar dressings. Lean-to glass houses to S side of N wall, now partly ruinous, 1996. The gardens are described in the particulars as being 3 acres in area and comprising "a Rose Garden, Fine Herbaceous Borders, Walks converging to a Central Sundial and a Large Well-stocked Kitchen Garden with Ranges of good Glasshouses including Vinery, Peach, Tomato and other Houses". The walled garden is now used as agricultural land. The glass houses to centre and to E are still used as such, although in poor state of repair. The garden is large and was formerly heated by pipes to the internal wall. The W wall was removed after the sale, by the farmer who now owns the estate. There is a pump house, now partly ruinous to NW, adjacent to Blackadder Water which was used to pump water to what is now known as Blackadder Mount (Historic Scotland)
