Description1. An area of former gardens, c.170m E-W by 120m, to the S of Ty Newydd.
OS 1891 depicts a square enclosure, c.30m across, traces of which can be seen on AP in a pasture field (RCAHMW AP965035/45-6), immediately S of what may have been the site of a now vanished mansion (see Nprn16971). This axis is extended by an apparent open swathe through the wooded area, further to the S.
The area around the motte (Nprn302309), on the SE, may have been included in the garden area.
