Walls Enclosing Witton Castle Gardens on West and South, with Ha-Ha

The walls enclosing the gardens of Witton Castle on the west and south sides, along with the ha-ha, date from the medieval period and the early to mid-19th century. The ha-ha is constructed of coursed squared sandstone with rusticated dressings. The west garden wall is made of sandstone rubble, featuring quoins and ashlar with yellow brick dressings. The serpentine ha-ha wall, which has a shaped overhanging coping, runs along the south side of the castle gardens and rises to meet the high west garden wall at the west end. This wall includes a square tower at the south end and a round turret at the north end. The internal face of the wall has low segmental brick-lined arches that support a walk along the embattled parapet; some arches have been partly blocked to create seating. The south tower features a three-light east opening with a door and two windows, all with chamfered stone mullions, although the steps have been removed. The north turret has a Tudor-arched door located beneath the north steps.
