Description

The boundary walls at Priory Gardens, which include a building currently used as a gardeners' store, date from the 18th century and later. These walls are approximately 7 feet high and constructed from red brick, featuring buttresses and varying heights in certain areas due to ramping. Some restoration work has been carried out. The site also includes an early 19th-century building, likely originally a farm structure, made of red and grey brick with a slate roof. This building has two segmental arched doors and three arched windows. The boundary walls are part of a group that includes the stage in the gardens.
