History

Probably early C19 and contemporary with the house. The wall is shown on the 1829 town plan.

Exterior

An L-shaped rubble-stone wall 3-4m high, curved at the angle. It has 2 inserted vehicular openings on the N side, adjoining a former coach house and stables at the rear of No 4 Castle Street (now converted to a dwelling known as the Mews). On the E side facing the castle it abuts another former outbuilding behind No 2 Castle Street, described in 1829 as offices but now much altered and also converted to a dwelling.
