Description

The boundary wall surrounding Greenwich Park is a Grade II listed structure primarily made of 17th century red brick. Much of the original wall remains intact, featuring stone-capped piers and dressed and moulded angles. Although some sections have been repaired or rebuilt at later dates, the entire wall contributes positively to the park's overall appearance. Wrought iron gates are located on the north side of the wall.
