Description
Section of rubble stone boundary wall, c.1800, with bowed projecting section to south-east and rubble stone coping.
Appraisal
This section of rubble stone boundary wall is a fine example of the once prolific, but increasingly rare, traditional method of constructing boundary walls. Replacement or modern boundary walls are frequently built with less attention paid to stone masonry traditions. The boundary wall is an attractive feature on the north bank of the Slate River, forming a semi-enclosed park along the river.
