Description

The steps and walls located approximately 15 meters south of the Church of St. Leodegarius were designed in 1939 by Sir Edwin Lutyens as part of an unexecuted plan for a cloister. The steps are flanked by piers made of ironstone ashlar with limestone coping. There is a flight of four steps leading to a platform, followed by a second flight of six steps. The flanking walls are constructed from coursed ironstone rubble with ironstone coping. The original designs for the cloister included arcades of Tuscan columns topped with a pitched tile roof, which would have been raised on a retaining wall to create an approach from the Wimbourne altar tomb and cross to the south porch of the church.
