Reason for designation: Group value with Rhual and with the formal garden structures.

The pedestal has a coat of arms on the south face, and Latin inscriptions on the W and E faces, that on the E face encircled by a carved snake, tail in mouth, includes the date MDCCXXXV and the initials AS and NG, perhaps for Nehemiah Griffiths who built the nearby Alleluia Monument. Location: Situated to the S of the house in the outer corner formed by the formal garden walls. Reached from a drive running N off the Mold/Gwernaffield by-road.
