Description

The garden wall, built around 1829-1833 by architect George Ledwell Taylor and engineer Sir John Rennie Snr, extends approximately 70 meters and encloses the former Commissioner's rear garden to the south of Dockyard House in Sheerness. It is constructed of yellow stock brick topped with ashlar coping and features a segmental-arched doorway on the side. This wall is related to the dockyard perimeter wall. Historically, unlike other Royal dockyards, Sheerness was completely rebuilt at once, forming part of the southeast corner of Rennie's model layout, which includes the entrance, chapel, and officers' accommodation, contributing to a uniquely planned early 19th-century dockyard.
