Garden Wall and Gates, About 80 Metres South of Taynton House

The garden wall and gates, located about 80 meters south of Taynton House, date from the late 17th century or early 18th century. Constructed from ashlar stone and Flemish garden wall bond brickwork, the structure features wrought iron elements. The square gate piers have a moulded base and rusticated quoins, with brick plaques situated between the shorter quoins. The cap has a moulded edge, a step, and a roll leading to an ogee center topped with an iron spike.

The gates have a nib for double gates, with the top rail sweeping up to a hanging style. The gates incorporate a mix of spiral and flat bars, with a former flat finial and a spiral finial. Each gate features scroll decoration on the upper half of the center bar, with terminated scrolls and ball and spike details, as well as additional scroll decoration on two bars in the lower half. The ironwork on the gates is lighter than that of the railings, which may have been renewed.

On either side of the gateway, there are approximately 4 meters of low wall with ashlar coping and railings above. The railings alternate between flat and spiral designs similar to the gates, and are leaded into the stone. Each section of the low wall features scroll decoration on the uprights, with ball and spike finials, and further scroll decoration at quarter lengths. The end walls curve down to a lower height and have double weathered coping on the outer face. To the right, with the back to the house, the wall extends to a corner about 26 meters from the gateway, curving up again at the end. This structure is part of a group with the house and farm buildings.
