Formal gardens are visible on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map to the west of the house. The early gardens were largely obliterated by 1815, but there are earthwork remains of a feature to the north of the house. There was tree and shrub planting to the West and East of the hall in the 19th century. The kitchen garden is of late 18th century origin, it was extended and altered between 1824-1900.
