Kitchen Garden Wall Approximately 175 Metres To North West Of Owston Hall

The kitchen garden wall, located approximately 175 metres to the north-west of Owston Hall, dates from the late 18th century and was built for the Owston Hall estate. It is constructed of red brick with stone copings and forms a rectangular enclosure measuring about 100 metres by 60 metres, with a height of 3 to 4 metres; the southern side is lower than the rest. The wall features no ornate openings, but there are panelled doors at the centre of the south side and at the southern end of the east side, along with other doorways on the north side that once led into greenhouse ranges, which have since been demolished. A double-doored vehicle entrance has been added at the north-west corner, where part of the north face of the wall is made of rubble limestone. The copings on the southern side tilt inwards and rise at the ends to meet the taller side walls, which are topped with thinner slabs of stone. This wall is depicted on a plan of Owston drawn by Humphry Repton in 1792.
