Close wall N of Old Palace and Priory Gate is a medieval stone wall forming part of the precinct boundary of what was once a substantial religious establishment in Lincolnshire. The wall dates to the medieval period and survives as an important physical remnant of the priory's defensive and demarcative architecture. As part of the Close wall system, it would have defined and protected the monastic precinct, separating the religious community's lands from the secular world beyond. The survival of this section of walling provides evidence of the scale and planning of the medieval priory complex and its organised spatial arrangement.
