Description

Rubble wall, approimately 2m high on the road side and 3m high on the Piazza side; connecting the Gloriette with the Colonnade. At a short distance to the E of the Gloriette the wall is punctuated by a well-detailed neo-Jacobean archway, with rusticated arch having entablature with strapwork cartouche over and flanking obelisk finials. A flight of 8 stone slab steps leads down to the Central Piazza through the archway from the road. The walls slope up to the arch on either side and have stone surmounting ball finials at their highest point. Between this archway and the Colonnade to the SE is a break in the wall with a wrought-iron balcony and flanking square piers; these are surmounted by stone ball finials.
