Description

The garden wall located to the west and southwest of Ashlack Hall dates from the 18th century, and may be even older. It stretches approximately 37.5 meters to the west of the hall's west wing, then extends 53 meters to the south, with some remaining sections reaching east. The north wall features a partly serpentine design and includes a round-headed niche, which may have been used for bees. The west wall has a round-headed gateway at its northern end, along with an entrance. This structure is included for its group value with Ashlack Hall.
