Description
The north-west boundary wall, located about 15 metres from the Treasurer's House on Church Street, dates from the 14th century and later. It is constructed from roughly cut and squared ham stone with ashlar dressings and measures approximately 25 metres in total length. At the north-east end, there is a moulded pointed-arched doorway with a buttress to the left, set beneath double stepped angled coping, making the wall about 4 metres high. Following this, there is a length of matching wall with angled coping that stands about 3.5 metres high, topped with a ball finial on the boundary. The wall then sweeps down to the front wall of Pattenden. This boundary wall is an important feature in relation to the Treasurer's House and contributes significantly to the streetscape, being situated opposite the Church of All Saints.
