Description
The structure consists of a wall and decorative iron railings that extend from Wills Grove to Mill Hill School. Originally, this wall served as the boundary for Ridgeway House, the residence of Peter Collinson. The high wall features some 18th-century work, while the railings are believed to have been added in 1927. This location was once home to Collinson's Botanic Garden, which included trees planted by Linnaeus. A plaque is present at the site.
