Description

The wall immediately south of Heaton Grove is a late 19th-century arcaded garden wall made of terracotta and stock red brick. It features seven round-headed arches that are supported by square section brick piers. The arches and cornice are made of moulded terracotta, with a continuous hoodmould above the arches that includes a foliage frieze, and the spandrels are adorned with shields surrounded by foliage. The wall is designed to look the same on both sides. Originally, it was topped with a series of terracotta urns, which have since been removed. The wall was likely built when Heaton Grove was extended at the rear and is connected at its northern end to an outbuilding from this extension. It also supported a trellis for climbing plants, with some of the iron attachments still remaining.
