Description

The garden walls located about 100 metres northwest of The Bury are the former kitchen garden walls of Newsells Park, dating from the early to mid 18th century. They are constructed of red brick with flared headers and enclose a parallelogram-shaped area measuring approximately 90 by 60 metres. The walls stand about 3 to 4 metres high and feature segmental brick coping and a plinth. There is a door with a cambered head on the northeast side, a large arched opening on the south, and a larger break in the wall on the north. The walls have angle buttresses at the outer corners. Inside the northern wall, there are lean-to glasshouses, which have been raised, and outside the northern wall, there are brick lean-to nursery outshuts that feature one and two-light casements, a round-headed window, and corrugated sheet roofing. Newsells Park House is not listed.
