Description

The walls enclosing the gardens to the south and east of Prideaux Place were built around the early 19th century. They are constructed from stone rubble and form high walls that surround the gardens. These walls flank the crenellated south entrance and extend south from the entrance gate, continuing from the flanking walls that create the mock fortifications to the east of Prideaux Place.
