Precinct wall of Llanthony Priory to the south of the Remains
of Outer Gatehouse (qv) on the west side of the outer court.
Early C16. Red brick in English bond with patterns in
vitrified headers.
EXTERIOR: crenellated wall from which the original weathered
coping stones have been robbed; about 1m below modern ground
level the base of the wall is built above the revetment to the
former outer moat; on the outer face, approx 18m south of the
gatehouse, three decorative patterns in vitrified brick, the
right-hand pattern in the form of a wayside cross, lozenge
patterns on left side and chequer patterns to middle.
The wall is a very early known example of brickwork in
Gloucestershire, and in a regional context of a type more
common in the south-east of England.
