Vineyard retaining walls. Late C18. Dressed yellow/grey sandstone
on living rock. Small rock-cut terrace approximately 60 metres long,
axially aligned on a recess in the larger terrace to the north (q.v.).
Adjoining flights of rock-cut steps. The terrace forms part of a
vineyard, one of the works carried out in Hawkstone Park by Sir Rowland
Hill in the late C18. There is a further larger terrace and a tower
(q.v.) to the north, and a series of smaller earth-cut terraces (not
included on this list) below to the south. Most of the park, with the
majority of the ornamental buildings and structures, lies in the adjoining
parish (see Weston-under-Redcastle C.P.) The Vineyard (shown on O.S. map
as Vineyard Cottage) is not included on this list. Arthur Oswald,
Country Life, July 3, 1958, pp 18-21 and July 10, 1958, pp. 72-75.
