Description
Walls of enclosure, previously part of the garden of the almshouses, used for Quaker burials from 1811.
MATERIALS: the walls are constructed of coursed cut and squared Forest Marble limestone and random limestone rubble.
DESCRIPTION: the walls enclose a rectangular area, measuring 28m from west to east and 17m from north to south, and include lengths of earlier walling along the north side and part of the west. The walls are ramped at the south-west, south-east and north-east corners, and there is a string course to the west, south and east sides. Entry is via a semi-circular arched pedestrian gateway in the west wall. This retains a wooden door frame, but the door is missing.
