Description
The Kitchen Garden Walls, located to the south-east of Corby Castle, were built between 1812 and 1817 for Henry Howard. These walls are made of brick and feature a sandstone ashlar entrance with stucco niches. On the west face, there are five round-headed arches made of channelled ashlar, which include channelled voussoirs and keystones. Above the cornice, there is a large carved coat of arms belonging to Lord William Howard. The centrally placed entrance is flanked by the remaining arches, which were originally designed as niches for statues. The enclosing walls are also constructed of brick and incorporate repeated decorative arches. The coat of arms dates from between 1611 and 1640 and was likely originally located somewhere on the castle.
