Garden Walls To Rear Of Bridge End House

The garden walls to the rear of Bridge End House date from the 17th century or early 18th century and have been altered. The south wall is made of roughly-squared stone, while the west and north walls are brick backed with squared stone. The walls form an irregular trapezium in plan, with the east side bordered by Bridge End House. The south wall stands 2.5 meters high and features a 17th-century-style monopitch coping, except for a heightened section near the east end. Near the west end, there is a boarded door set in a worn chamfered surround. The west wall reaches a height of 4 meters to the stone coping, which is then raised by 1 meter in the late 19th or early 20th century. The north wall is 4 meters high in the west part and 3 meters high in the east part, with flat coping. Near the center of the north wall, there is a boarded door with a keyed lintel. The south wall is built over the site of a medieval chapel, the footings of which were visible in the last century but are no longer exposed.
