Honeycombed brickwork in a wall of Flemish garden wall bond.
The honeycombs were used (back in the day) for allowing air to circulate. In this instance the circulating air was used to help keep animal food stuffs (such as hay) fresh.
The building is a former stable and barn, with space for horse & carriage to drive through the width of the barn, also to store the carriage in the barn.
Flemish garden wall bond consists of 3 stretchers (the brick laid longways) to 1 header (the brick laid short ways) all along each course.
Headers in a wall provide strength (English bond has many headers, and is the strongest bond). It’s very difficult to make a wall look nice on both sides with lots of headers being used (they can vary in length, but should be exactly 215mm long). So garden wall bonds are used, that have some headers, but not too many to make it difficult to face a wall on both sides.
I think you’ll find Flemish garden wall bond very attractive to the eye.
The current owners use tea-lighters to enhance and show off the now decorative honeycombed brickwork.

The Neo-Gothic style employed by architect Alexander North is seen here in the brickwork above the east door. Although this was completed in 1911, the style is reminiscent of the work carried out by Augustus Pugin in England in the 1840s.
