Description

The walls and gate in front of Hunstanworth Farm and farmhouse were constructed around 1863 by S.S. Teulon for Rev. Daniel Capper. They are made of dry sandstone rubble and feature a wooden gate. The walls are approximately 80 centimeters to 1 meter high and have a round coping. They extend from the east end of the farmhouse garden along the road to the corner of a farm building located at the northwest corner of the farmyard. Similar walls continue from the north wall of that building to the farmyard entrance and along the east side of the entrance.
