Description
The boundary wall of Westrop House, built around 1818, features low ashlar walls at the front with ramps leading down to piers. To the east, the wall transitions into coursed rubble, rising to 8 feet at the corner and continuing to enclose the garden. The wall to the west is approximately 5 feet 6 inches high, also constructed of rubble, and includes panelled piers at intervals, extending as far as the track leading to the stables and rear entrance, which has ammonites built into it.
