Description
The boundary wall located north of the Friends' Meeting House dates from the mid-18th century. It is constructed from a mix of cobbles, sandstone rubble, and brick, featuring sandstone dressings. The wall is low and has chamfered coping, with a serpentine curve at either side of the gate. It includes 19th-century field stone gate posts and a 20th-century farm gate. This wall is included partly for its group value with the Friends' Meeting House.
