Description

The garden walls located 400 metres west of Mitford Hall date from the early 19th century. They are constructed of brick in English Garden Wall bond 1 and 3, featuring tooled stone external faces and cut stone dressings. The walls have a trapezoidal plan, with tall rear and side walls topped with flat stone coping. The rear wall includes two six-panel doors set in chamfered raised stone surrounds, while each side wall has a similar door in a round-arched moulded raised stone surround. The end walls extend beyond the lower front wall, with the coping sloping down to terminal piers that have stepped caps. The gateway near each end of the front wall also features similar caps on the piers.
