PITCHFORD C.P. PITCHFORD Garden retaining wall and flight of steps adjoining Pitchford Hall to south-east

GV II

Garden retaining wall and flight of steps. 1870's and 1880's, probably by George Devey and possibly incorporating parts of an earlier wall. Coursed red sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings and stone coping. Approximately 34 metres long and 1 - 2 metres high with convex curved projection to east. Flight of 8 stone steps to south with returned retaining walls and square ashlar piers with globe finials. The wall may be a rebuilding or a replacement of a wall in a similar position shown on an estate map of 1714, kept in the house. The retaining wall forms an important part of the setting of Pitchford Hall (qv) as seen from the east. Included for group value.
