Corner pier and garden wall to south-west of the Old Hall.
II
GV
Corner pier and garden wall: partly C17, partly mid C18. Ashlar buff
sandstone and some English garden wall bond red brick. Chamfered
rusticated gate pier on moulded plinth with a projecting moulded
capstone and a stepped top. The pier stands on the corner of the
stone garden wall on Congleton Road. The pier is ivy clad and is said
to have the Stanley crest. For 15m north and to the east is the
original stone garden wall. To the east this changes to a C17 brick
wall with stone coping. Where it joins the Mill dam wall is a small
gate, with a truncated stone pier, T-shape in plan with
ovolo-mouldings on the corner.
These are the remains of grand gardens, walls and bridges that were in
front of the major extensions of the Old Hall built in 1754 by Sir
Edward Stanley, destroyed by fire in 1779 and subsequently demolished.
Listed for group value only.
