is relief from the wall a local rule? i feel like when you watch the euro tour those guys play a ton of courses with old rock walls surrounding greens, and i don't recall seeing free drops.

It's more likely the lack of a local rule. A wall would normally fit the definition of an immovable obstruction. However, many courses designate certain decorative walls as "integral parts of the course" and thus, no relief is granted. Additionally, relief is not provided for walls which define the boundary of the course.
