SX8751 MOUNT BOONE 673-1/5/180 (South side) Rear boundary wall including gateway to No.1 (No.1 not included)
GV II
Boundary wall. Uncertain date. It was in existence by the mid C18 when it was depicted in a topographical painting (see sources) and might have been in use in the Civil War. Built of stone rubble with granite coping, one section includes some C18 brick. Tall crenellated wall, mostly around 2m high but much higher in places, with ridged granite coping. Most of front wall has been replaced, surviving adjacent to No.1 Mount Boone. As it curves round the corner onto Mount Boone Hill there is a large gateway; square piers with chamfered corners of red sandstone ashlar, stepped caps and large ball finials. As it follows the irregular course of Mount Boone Hill and returns along the rear of the gardens along Mount Boone Lane there are various gateways knocked through it. Some sections have been rebuilt, some have lost their coping, but most remains. One section has C18 brick to the embattled granite coping and, in places, some of the granite coping is more elaborate with mouldings returned up and down the merlons and embrasures. Built as the boundary wall to Mount Boone, the C18 home of the Seale family. This was demolished and its grounds developed with a row of Edwardian villas, Nos 1-16 (consec) Mount Boone. (Freeman, Ray: Dartmouth and its Neighbours: Phillimore: 1990-: PL.74/P.136).
