Description


BEBINGTON MARK RAKE
SJ 38 SW
(north side)
Bromborough
6/158 Wall to grounds
of Stanhope House

G.V. II

Wall, approximately 47 m. long, with return to Spital Road.
Date uncertain, probably medieval. Stone, with roll
moulding to coping. Recessed quadrant to corner and stone
arch to gate to Spital Road, altered c.1939. To east end of
wall are 2 groups of vertical grooves, said to be caused by
the sharpening of arrow heads. The name Mark Rake,
indicating archery butts in the street, tends to confirm
this.
