Description

The walls along the west boundary and south-east boundary of the Pentland House grounds are late 17th century or early 18th century structures made of red brick. The upper parts of the walls have been partly rebuilt in a short east-west section. In the south-east section, there are sloped buttresses at fairly close intervals that blend into the walls. These walls, along with Lee Public Library, the walls and gate piers, and Pentland House, form a group of significant structures.
