Description
The Deer Park Wall at Berry Pomeroy Castle is a Grade II* listed structure, originally serving as a boundary for a deer park. It dates back to before 1292 and is constructed of coursed limestone rubble in a dry masonry style, with parts capped by limestone slabs. The wall encloses an area of approximately 340 acres. About three quarters of the wall remains intact, although sections that run through woodland have suffered damage from tree roots. In its more complete areas, the wall rises to just over two meters and is about one meter thick.
