Description

The garden walls and pavilions at Rhual, which include attached walls and gatepiers at the drive entrance, are listed as a significant structure. The brick walls, made of brownish orange brick, create a forecourt in front of the main elevation of the house. They feature a flat parapet topped with vase-shaped iron cresting plates and end with brick piers that support stone urns. The walls extend outward to form a larger secondary forecourt, with a pedimented pavilion at each angle. Each pavilion has a cast-iron finial shaped like a vase with three tulips. Inside the pavilions, there is simple fixed bench seating, likely from the 19th century, and niches on each side of the interior, which are said to have been used for placing beer mugs. The walls conclude with brick piers topped with ball finials. The eastern wall is lower in height and features two full-height stone gatepiers with ball finials and a wrought iron gate at the center. Decorative wrought iron insets, possibly from the early 19th century, fill the angle of the wall's return. On the outer face of the wall, three bee-boles are located at the northeast end. Behind the northern pavilion is a brick mounting block, and attached to the southeast side is a brick wall that connects to the driveway entrance walls, which have simple gatepiers.
