– An ancient Chinese military defence, linear and of extraordinary length, built in the north of China on imperial orders to defend the empire from nomadic attack.

– wilderness Great Wall of China, untouched since its abandonment, thus retaining an overwhelming antiquarian and wilderness atmosphere.

  – (short form of the term “Great Wall landscape”), defined as a landscape, unique to North China, a lengthy section of that country’s generic border defence fortifications as the dominant feature, extant amidst natural scenery which may have been the construction base and source of the Wall’s building materials.

 (NB. Use of the term “Wild Wall” or variations in capitalized, lower case or adjoined forms, such as “WildWall” and “Wildwall”, and Wallscape, for commercial gain are in breach of accepted international intellectual property norms. These terms were invented as words and introduced into the English language by William Lindesay. As such they can be used as descriptive words in reports and writing (either capitalized, in lower case, joined or separated), but they cannot be used commercially by businesses that sell either products or services. Copyright ownership of these terms by William Lindesay has been established by publication of printed and elcetronic forms containing these terms since 1990 and 1996. )
