Walls. 1870s, contemporary with the building of Oldway Manor in 1874 to the designs of GS Bridgman for Isaac Singer. Local red breccia, with some grey limestone toothed capping, some brick and some concrete balustrading. The walls bound the site of Oldway Mansion on the Oldway Road side. The walls vary in height. In front of the exercise yard of the riding pavilion (qv) they are massively tall with a section of brick above the red breccia and concrete balustrading. Towards the entrance to the house from Oldway Road they curve inwards and one original square section gate pier survives with a pyramidal cap. Beyond the entrance the walls are lower with toothed capping. Included for group value with listed items at Oldway Mansion, Torquay Road, (qv).
