In reply to Iain. To go to the wall or take the wall means to walk on the side of the sidewalk that is closest to the wall of the buildings. This is a safer place to be, because on the outside, you can be spattered with the mud of passing horses, and the chamber pots being emptied from the second story into the gutter. (This was before plumbing.) The arc of that sewage would also most likely hit the outer edge of the sidewalk. Gentlemen usually give ladies the wall, but if two men pass each other, to take the wall is quite plainly to esteem oneself higher than the other.
