My daughter's house has a rather nice walled garden - but the wall has no

I really feel we need to put some capping on the top to prevent more water
and frost damage.

What would you suggest? Glazed brick? Stone?

Could the wall be cleaned as it looks a bit stained from water soacking
down it?

I would suggest a DPC under whatever you cap it with .......
