Description

The garden wall in front of Knowehill is a Grade II listed structure. It features a low rendered brick wall that encloses a small garden on three sides. The wall is complemented by panelled square stone gate piers that have cornices topped with pineapple finials. The 20th-century gates are not of particular interest. This wall is included partly for its group value with Knowehill.
