SO83SE ST MARY'S ROAD 859-1/2/338 (South East side) Boundary wall from Folly Cottage to Nos.11, 12 and 13 Mill Bank

GV II

Run of boundary walls at end of plots to Church Street. C18 and C19. Brick and stone. A series of 7 sections of wall, forming a continuous connected boundary immediately on the street which is here generally lower than the plots contained. From the right end (SW): (a) C18 brick with some sections in large lias block, probably of C16 or C17 date, approx 1.5m high, but rising at right end to approx 3m. The wall returns opposite Nos 9 & 10, Mill Bank (qv) to the gable end of Nos 11-13 (qv). (b) a long (approx 15m) stretch of C19 brick wall, mainly in stretchers, to a blue brick coping at approx 2.75m from road level, includes a wide plank door to a concrete lintel at right-hand end. (c) C18 Flemish bond brickwork, coping concealed by ivy growth. Approx 7m run, with straight joints at each end, this retains the Baptist Church graveyard. (d) C18 Flemish bond brickwork, approx 6m run and 3m high, containing a wide pair of plank doors. (e) English garden wall bond, approx 8m run, to brick-on-edge coping at approx 2.5m. Straight joints each end. (f) Boundary wall to 'The Hamlet' (not included) in English garden wall bond. Total approx 9m run, includes garage doors under brick-on-edge coping, right, but drops to left with concrete coping, and plank door; (g) Boundary wall abutting Folly Cottage (not included) at the left-hand end. C19 English garden wall bond to approx 2.25m with sandstone coping, but swept up to a capped pier with sandstone pyramidal capping, at each end. Because of the existence here of the River Avon, beyond which lies the open area of The Ham, this wall is a significant boundary marking the extent of the built-up historic town; it is also important visually as a boundary to the varied plots which it retains.
