Description
The northeast precinct wall at Ewenny Priory is a section of rubble wall that is lower than the main defensive precinct wall to the west. It connects the northern tower and the priory at the northwest. The footings attached to the northern tower are included in this description, as well as the adjacent stretch on the site of the stable court's northern range. This section consists of a small return from the stable court building and a straight stretch leading to the abbey. The wall is made of stone rubble, has a slight batter, and does not stand to its full height.
