The loose stone area continues to a wooden fence which denotes boundary to the left hand side, where there are two car ports, the right hand car port being owned by the property, the left hand car port belonging to the neighbour. The land entirely in front is owned by Willowbrook Cottage and the neighbour has right of access over.

Continue around and there is an outside tap, outside electricity point and step rising to a decked area with feature pond, the perfect area for seating, alfresco dining and enjoying the sun.
