SY6878NW HOPE STREET SOUTH 873-1/24/200 (South East side) 14/06/74 Yard wall to Devenish No.1 Malthouse

GV II

Boundary wall and gateways. Early to mid C19. Portland stone squared and coursed or coursed rubble. The total run overall is approx 32m. The wall encloses a courtyard across the width of the Malthouse (qv) in a run of approx 4.5m in large rough-squared and coursed stone approx 2.7m high to a rough saddle-back coping. At the right-hand end it is stopped to a dressed jamb, with approx 3m wide opening to the right, containing a pair of plank gates on timber posts. At the left, to a straight joint, the wall continues in smaller coursed rubble, with similar coping, sweeping back in a segmental quadrant to jambs in large dressed block with half-pyramidal cappings to a former opening, approx 3.5m wide, filled full height with concrete blockwork. Beyond this opening the segmental sweep runs across at a slight angle to abut the side wall of No.7 Hope Street (qv), the warehouse connected by a footbridge to the Malthouse. The wall is of interest as an element associated with the Malthouse, but also is important visually in relation to Hope Square.
