The wall surrounding the burial ground of the Friends' Meeting House, dated 1693 above the entrance, is now used as a garden wall. It is constructed of limestone rubble and features a low height with irregular rubble coping and a side plank door. The wall encloses the garden on three sides and connects to the Meeting House on the fourth side. The walls, except for the roadside wall, are in poor condition. This structure is listed for its group value with the Friends' Meeting House.
