Garden boundary walls. Circa 1870s; possibly by 1872 by T. Roger Smith or 1879 by E. M. Barry, who both remodelled Stancliffe Hall for Sir Joseph Whitworth, industrialist; said to be dated 1883 at eastern end. Derbyshire grit stone, dressed, coursed and rock-faced, with saddle-back coping also rock-faced. Curved corners and at entrance the walls sweep up to rock-faced grit stone piers with caps. At the north end the wall is lower and formerly supported iron railings, now missing. VR post box is set into the south west corner.
Together with the east garden boundary wall of Stancliffe Hall these walls are a most conspicuous feature of Darley Hillside.
