Description


COMBEFIELDS COMBE ABBEY
SP 37 NE
5/10005 Wall to S of The Woodlands
Combe Abbey
GV II
Boundary wall. c1770-78, with later alterations. By Lancelot
(Capability) Brown. Red brick with coping in part and remains of
bases for urns. This wall extends south-east of The Woodlands (qv)
to the edge of The Pool and is approx 2-3m in height but has the
occasional gap or area of collapse. The wall was originally built by
Brown together with that to north (qv) of The Woodlands to cut off the
area of land bordering The Pool which he had formed into a Menagerie.
The area is named as such and the wall is shown in a plan of 1778.
