Condition

Barracks Wall (ruin) is in a fair condition. One window, however, has timber lintels showing evidence of termite damage. While the ivy that covers the place does not appear to be causing any damage to the fabric, and may in fact afford the wall some protection from the elements, regular pruning would help to avoid any cracking of the limestone by the ivy that may otherwise occur.
