This massive wall some 3 metres thick is presumably part of the wall surrounding Mainsforth Hall, demolished in 1962 which was one time occupied by the 18th century antiquarian Robert Surtees. http://www.northeastengland.talktalk.net/Sedgefield%20and%20South%20Durham.htm#MIDDLEHAM%20AND%20MAINSFORTH
