Cadw's description
Location
Situated between rear of No 42 Saint Mary's Street and service drive to Castle Green House.
History
Early C20. Not marked on 1887 O.S. map and presumably dating from the widening of Carrier's Lane in 1907. Lane was marked on 1834 map as part of The Strand but built up on west side, these houses removed for road widening.
Exterior
Boundary wall in rubble stone with back-sloping crenellation, some 3m to 4m high, running from rear of No 42 Saint Mary's Street along Carrier's Lane and curving round into The Strand to terminate at service drive entry. Short section behind No 42 is restored or rebuilt, with door to rear yard, further on is panelled door giving access to garden of No 43. Some 70m length to service drive. There is evidence of the wall being heightened and the crenellations added.
