Cadw's description
Location
These walls enclose the front garden to White House Cottage to the south-west of the house, and also to the east where they connect the house with the rear outbuildings.
History
Probably C18 and contemporary with the house. There is a cottage shown in this position on John Speed's plan of 1610 but its orientation is different and no walls are shown.
Exterior
Walls of stone rubble. Wall to south-west of house with brick coping; square brick gate piers flank entrance to front garden. Section of wall to east of house with embattled parapet.
Reason for designation
Included for group value as a part of the setting for the other listed buildings on The Cathedral Green.
