It is estimated that this stone wall was built in the latter half of the 17th century, during major renovation works by the second feudal lord of the Date clan, Date Munetoshi. The characteristics are well represented in the corners, where a technique called "Sangi-zumi(stacking)", in which rectangular stones neatly shaped with a chisel were piled up, while turned alternately vertically and horizontally.
It is believed to have been a build during the major castle renovation works between 1664-1671, by the second feudal lord of the Date clan, Date Munetoshi.
