2 Arcaded Garden Walls, Piers And Stone Lions To North And West Of Lambton Castle

The structure consists of two arcaded garden walls, piers, and stone lions located to the north and west of Lambton Castle. These features are likely from the mid-19th century and are made of ashlar stone. The two carved stone lions, created around 1862 by Beale of Newcastle, were originally placed on the gables of the demolished Great Hall of Lambton Castle and were moved to their current location around 1932.

The two separate walls have tall plinths and low arcaded upper sections, which include regularly spaced piers, narrow trefoil-headed pierced arches, and moulded coping. The L-shaped wall to the north of the castle extends approximately 55 meters west and then 15 meters south. It has taller square-plan piers with chamfered edges at both ends and at the north-west corner. The south-west pier features a life-sized lion that is squatting on its hind legs and holding an ornamental spear. The straight wall to the west of the castle runs about 70 meters west and has identical taller piers at both the west end and near the east end, with the latter pier also supporting a similar stone lion. This structure is included for its group value.
