Description
The screen wall located approximately 35 meters northwest of Malton Lodge is a courtyard wall dating from around 1604, with alterations made around 1675. It was commissioned by Ralph, Lord Eure. The wall is constructed of dressed sandstone, which has significantly decayed over time, resulting in defaced mouldings. It measures approximately 70 meters in length and features a central arched gate that has since been blocked, with new gates installed at each end. The wall stands about 5 meters high, rising to approximately 6.5 meters over the arches.
The central arch is made of voussoirs and is flanked by paired pilasters on bulbous moulded pedestals, with imposts or caps, and possibly a triglyph frieze along with a moulded projecting cornice. To the left of the central arch, there is an elliptical arch between pilaster buttresses, which was likely originally mirrored by a similar arch at the right end. The wall includes a weathered course at about mid-height and features sloped coping. This wall was part of the screen wall for the outer forecourt of the former Eure mansion, which is now known as Malton Lodge.
