8/136 The walling enclosing patio on
south side of Balsam House
(formerly listed as forecourt
wall at Balsam House)
24.3.61
GV II
Garden walling. C18. Local stone rubble and ashlar. Extending from south west corner of Balsam House (qv) a rubble wall
with ashlar coping about 2 metres high and 5 metres long, ending in a stone pier about 350 mm square, with plinth,
moulded cap, step and ball finial, with 2 fielded panels on South face only: a similar pier on the South West corner of
the South East extension, and linking them a low cut and squared stone wall, in centre of which is an archway composed
of similar piers without the finials the moulded caps being linked by a matching semi-circular arch of similar detail.
This work could well be by Nathaniel Ireson, and would thus represent almost the only survival of his work on the house
in mid C18.
