Old boundary wall
This old wall is on North Road, Dipton, next to the junction with Bushblades Lane. It probably formed the boundary wall of Bushblades Township, at the edge of Lanchester Common. After the 1773 Enclosures Act, North road was set out and the wall would have formed part of the boundary of this road. The street across the road is Poplar Grove.
