Full Description
Drystone boundary wall along the line of the old deviation. It forms one side of the south part of the turning triangle. At the end of the triangle, it becomes a field boundary wall.This would have been a continuous wall prior to the construction of the newer line (now the mineral railway), so the wall now starts where it leaves the line of the mineral railway.
The wall is constructed of irregular limestone blocks, and is approximately 1m high; it is tumbled in places. (1).
