Description

The wall and archway adjoining Bishopthorpe Palace were built around 1763-1765 by Peter Atkinson for Archbishop Drummond. Constructed from magnesian limestone ashlar, the structure is L-shaped, approximately 2 metres high and 20 metres long. It features a round-headed archway with a moulded surround, topped by an ogee-headed hood-mould that has finials and head stops. There are cross-shaped slits on either side of the archway, and the wall is embattled.
