Wall to North of the Woodlands, Combe Abbey and Attached Farmbuildings

The boundary wall to the north of The Woodlands at Combe Abbey dates from around 1770 to 1778 and features later alterations. It was designed by Lancelot (Capability) Brown. Constructed of red brick with coping in parts, the wall extends north and northwest towards the edge of The Pool and stands approximately 3 meters high, although there are occasional gaps or areas of collapse. Originally built by Brown, this wall, along with the one to the south of The Woodlands, was intended to enclose the land bordering The Pool, which he had transformed into a Menagerie, as indicated in a plan from 1778.

Attached to the western side of the wall is a range of single-storey outbuildings made of red brick with plain tile roofs and a single ridge stack. The central range features two doorways with plank doors on the right, flanked by single 2-light glazing bar casements. To the right is a remodelled 19th-century wing, while to the left is an original wing that includes two plank doors and two 2-light casements. These outbuildings were constructed to support the Menagerie, providing storage for feed and winter quarters for the exotic animals housed there.
