Garden Wall Attached To North End Of Meols Hall

The garden wall attached to the north end of Meols Hall is likely from the late 17th century or early 18th century, though it has been altered and extended. It encloses the north and west sides of the garden adjacent to Meols Hall, connecting at the north-west corner of the house. The wall is constructed from hand-made red brick in an irregular English garden wall bond. The section that is attached to the house and runs north is approximately 35 meters long and 3 meters high, featuring five large curved buttresses and a stepped inner side, with the upper third slightly set back. The eastern return of the wall is of similar height and length, having been extended to connect with a 20th-century gazebo. This section includes five triangular buttresses and an elliptical-arched bower near its west end, which may also be from the 20th century. The wall forms a group with Meols Hall and the nearby Ha-ha.
