The wall is probably of the later C17, part of the scheme devised by Sir Thomas Myddleton in 1675 to extend the park to the S and E to hold 500 deer.
A boundary wall of rubble stone, with a heavy stone-on-edge coping wider than the wall overhanging both sides. The wall is approximately 2m high, and follows the contour of the ground, but is broken for the driveway.
Included as a significant element of the late C17 park layout at Chirk, and of group value with Deerpark Lodge.
