Full Description

{2} Considered to pre-date 1741 {3}, since the walled garden is shown on this map and the bee boles are constructed of the same brick. A free-standing structure with tiled (?) roof, contains two large compartments each with two rows of three+three boles set back from the front. In 1994, the brickwork was cracking. Photograph.
