Description

This is a garden wall located approximately 50 metres east of Braxted Park House, dating from the 17th or 18th century. A scratched date "I.S. 1821" can be found at the base of the east wall. The wall is made of red brick and stands about 15 feet high, featuring a semi-circular brick coping. It encloses the original garden.

A central wrought iron gate on the south side, along with matching side panels and a head, is supported by brick pillars topped with stone eagle finials, which are the emblem of the Du Cane family. The wall includes spur walls with urn finials, and the angles of the north wall are adorned with foliated ball finials. There are also two brick-built gardeners' sheds attached to the east and west walls.

To the east of the walled garden, there is a raised walk, which is supported on the eastern side by a ha-ha and features terminal urns. This garden wall is a good example of its type and is one of the few surviving features from this period in Essex.
