PRN 54984 A site visit and photographic record was undertaken on the walled garden at Grayingham. The structure is a rectangular enclosure measuring approximately 52m by 30m. The exterior of the walls are built in rough course stone with some brick trim around doorways and to buttresses. The interior lining is in brick in English Garden Wall bond and extends to the north, east and west walls only, the southern wall being solid stone. The walls have clay pantile cappings. There are two accesses into the garden with a bricked up doorway towards the west end of the north wall (this served as a former lean-to store room). There is a well in the northwest corner of the garden, and a later timber post and beam cattle shelter located abutting the south side of the north wall. It is probable that the walled garden was built by John Thorold, the Rector of Grayingham Parish Church, sometime between 1805 and 1820. His kitchen garden may have been built at the same time as the nearby Rectory utlising stone from the derelict Parsonage House and outbuildings located immediately to the west of the garden. The walled garden lies midway between the Rectory and the church. It was used by successive Rectors until the Rectory was sold by the church in the 1950s. {1}
