Wall To East Of Former Abbey Vineyard

The wall to the east of the former Abbey vineyard in Bury St Edmunds is a significant structure from the 18th and 19th centuries. This replacement wall primarily consists of kidney flint and features flat red brick pilasters that create bays at the southern end, topped with a red brick coping. In the central section, the flint is not mixed with brick, but the wall is supported by buttresses on the inner side, where the ground slopes down. At the northern end, there is a taller section from the 18th century, where the flint is separated by flat pilasters made from reused stone blocks, and this part includes a mixture of similar blocks along with a 20th-century replacement coping.
