Description
The walls fronting Manor Lodge in Hove are a boundary wall dating from the 18th century and the late 19th century. They are constructed of unknapped flint, some red brick, cement render, and coping, with yellow stock bricks used in the entrance range. The central section of the wall was rebuilt in the late 19th century to create the entrance to Manor Lodge, with earlier walls extending to the south and north, totaling about 200 meters in length.
The 19th-century walls feature four to seven bays that curve towards the entrance, with square piers set into the wall topped with pyramids. The wall has chamfered brick coping, a roll-moulded cornice, and a moulded plinth. The entrance piers are identical but were obscured by ivy at the time of the survey. The wall continues to the south, standing about 1.5 meters high, with unknapped flint and small brick buttresses added. To the north, the wall rises to around 2.5 meters, with courses of brickwork and panels dividing the wall where it returns to Manor Road, where it is approximately 1.5 meters high with cement coping. There is a blocked round-arched doorway located about 30 meters north of the entrance. The entrance to Manor Lodge was likely relocated in the late 19th century, which led to the construction of this new section of walls.
