Description

This is a garden wall with gate piers located opposite the Manor House, connecting an outbuilding and a barn. It dates from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. The wall is constructed of coursed grey gritstone, with solid gritstone blocks used for the gate piers and a wrought iron pedestrian gate. The low wall consists of three courses of stone topped with a ridged coping and ramps up at the east end to accommodate the rising ground leading to the outbuilding. At the western end, the wall turns a corner and features two gate piers, each approximately 1 metre high, with a moulded cornice and shallow pyramid finials. The wall extends to meet an added range of the Manor House barn, with an overall length of about 20 metres. The pedestrian gate is made of round section bars and dog bars, topped with bulbous finials.
