Appraisal
The demesne walls of Hilton Park are simply executed in random rubble and constitute an important part of the architectural heritage identity of this locality, testifying to the power and status of the estate as well as constituting an ostensible security measure. They form a component part of the group of structures which remain extant of the original complex and make a significant impression on the roadscapes of the area.
