Early C18.  Red brick in 2 shades, with stone cap.  About 8 feel high, with plinth and stone ball finials (1 ball missing), the piers are about 10 yards apart and joined by the stone base to a missing iron rail, with 2 central steps.  The whole originally formed a ceremonial entrance to the churchyard from Goodnestone Park.  The wall, terminated at the west end by a pier with a ball finial, varies in height from about 6 feet to about 10 feet at the east end where it adjoins Lindley House, and is almost entirely mid C19, although there are traces of an earlier wall.
