Walls on North East and South West Sides of North West Garden at Little Mote

The walls on the northeast and southwest sides of the northwest garden at Little Mote date from no later than the mid-18th century, though they may have medieval origins. They are constructed of coursed flint with brick and flint coping.

The northeast wall stands about eight feet high and is twenty inches deep at the base. Although part of the coping has been removed, it includes a Roman tile. This wall extends southwest for a short distance at the river end, where the footings continue. Here, there are three brick quoins, along with a flint quoin near the base.

The southwest wall is possibly slightly shorter and features similar flint masonry. It is divided into two sections, with a short northwest section that reaches the river, where brick quoins are present. The main section of the southwest wall retains more of its coping, which consists of four courses of brickwork, one of which has brick cogging, along with flints at the top. This wall is slightly thicker at its southeast end and ends parallel to the external chimney breast of the house on its southwest elevation. It is believed that these walls may be medieval or mark the boundary lines of a garden area to the northwest of the house.
