A remarkable collection of mid – late 19th Century boundary/garden walls constructed of various lower grades of local yellow brick ranging from clumsy burrs to low-grade, irregularly fired stocks. All laid inn varied and mixed informal bonds, including random, garden wall, header, vertical header and stretcher bonds. Much of the significance of these walls lies in their townscape value but they also betray the development pattern of this area of Faversham as it was turned by piecemeal development from orchard to housing between 1860 and 1900. Further, they show how the otherwise unmarketable, low-grade material from the local brickmaking industry was used to good effect by Faversham.
