Tagged with: Wall
Probably medieval in origin and possibly associated with Ruthin Castle. It joins the former Lord's Garden, attached to Nantclwyd House, which was the kitchen garden to the castle. It was part-castellated at last re-survey, and was probably renewed or embellished in the early C19.
The wall forms a boundary with the footpath which runs around the perimeter of the grounds of Ruthin Castle Hotel; the wall curves round at the W end to join the walls of the former Lord's Garden.
Constructed of large blocks of random stone without copings, including some blocks of red sandstone, similar to that of Ruthin Castle; some rebuilding and repair. It is a high retaining wall to the footpath with low buttresses for part of its length; in the garden, the wall is c1.3m high to the E and 1m high to the W.
Listed as an early boundary wall which appears to include medieval fabric, which may have been associated with Ruthin Castle. Group value with 20-22 Castle Street.
