This "humble" door is used to present the viewer with a snapshot of the water element within the walled garden. The come-hither path draws the eye to the garden wall, through the humble door and into the garden, leading to we know not where.
Intriguing, right? (Not to belabor my point, but see how you might think of this trick as the landscape design equivalent of a peep show?)
