Description

The garden boundary walls, including gate piers, located to the east of Stancliffe Hall, date from around the 1870s. They may have been constructed in 1872 by T. Roger Smith or in 1879 by E.M. Barry, both of whom remodeled Stancliffe Hall for the industrialist Sir Joseph Whitworth. The walls are made of Derbyshire grit stone, which is dressed, coursed, and rock-faced, featuring saddle-back coping that is also rock-faced. At the entrance to the drive, the walls rise to monolithic grit stone gate piers topped with caps. Together with the garden boundary walls opposite, these structures are a prominent feature of Darley Hillside.
