Description

The garden wall and gates to Thorington Hall, located on Thorington Street in Stoke-by-Nayland, is a significant structure dating from the 17th century. The wall is made of massive red brick and runs along the south-east front of the property. It features 18th-century gate piers topped with ball finials, although the gates themselves are modern. The wall is approximately 7 feet high and has a wide weathered cap adorned with brick dentils. Additionally, a later wall extends along the north-east side in Mill Lane.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
