Front Garden Wall To High Osgodby Grange

The front garden wall to High Osgodby Grange is a garden wall built in the early to mid-18th century. It is made of coursed squared stone and features a segment-sectioned ashlar coping. The front wall stands approximately 1 metre high and has steps leading up to a gateway that aligns with the house door. On either side of the gateway, the wall ramps up and is topped with later, stepped, hemispherical tapstones.

To the right of the gateway, the wall rises to meet a taller return wall that ends at the house. This wall has a chamfered plinth and features three round-arched, semi-domed niches with keyed archivolts on the garden side. On the left side of the gateway, the wall continues and ramps down, transitioning into a low-level garden retaining wall. Beyond this ramp, there is a break in the masonry before the wall returns towards the rear, ramping up once more before ending at an outbuilding, which is not of special interest.
