Description
The front garden wall is a low structure made of thin layers of grey and red Radyr stone arranged in regular courses, featuring ashlar quoins and coping. It includes two pointed-headed recesses on the south-west side and a pointed arch on the right return. This wall originally served as a well for public water supply before the introduction of piped water.
