A large serpentine wall This 12 foot high wall was once protection for a walled garden, part of a kitchen garden probably associated with Worlingham Hall. Located in Garden Lane, it is from this garden that the road takes its name. This face extends to about 40 metres along the road, being the eastern side. A straight wall joins at the southeast corner and runs 60 metres westward and joins another serpentine wall running south to north terminating in the back garden of numbers 11 and 12 Paddocks Green. Originally covering about an acre, just over 0.4 of a hectare. The whole structure is grade II listed #1032014 and was constructed late 18th or early 19th century
