HAREWOOD HAREWOOD PARK SE3044 LS17 13/85 Walls to Triangular garden

GV II

Walls to former fruit-garden, now sheep fold. Mid-late C18 for Edwin Lascelles 1st Lord Harewood. Orange-red brick (English garden-wall bond) walls with ashlar coping. Forms an equilateral-triangle with walls running in directions north- south, north-east, east-south known respectively as the North-wall, West-wall and Long-Border Wall. The West wall has at its northern end stone doorway with rusticated Gibbs surround and triple keystone, broad projections for heated flues. At the southern end the Long-border wall almost meets the West wall giving access into the garden for its modern use as a sheep fold with continuous lean-to with corrugated iron roof on timber posts with sheep pens in the centre.

At one time fruit of all kinds were grown here for Harewood House (q.v.). In particular it is recorded that peaches, nectarines, pears of all kinds, Victoria plums, greengages, apricots, corden goosberries, corden apples and Morello cherries were all grown here.
