I think the last one I read was Mariel, and the whole thing was starting to go even then.
I have an instinctive fondness for Mariel of Redwall because of the presence of pirates, even if the villain is a pirate with a very silly name.
Of his non-Redwall books, I remember that Seven Strange and Ghostly Tales effectively creeped me out when I was in sixth grade, and that Castaways of the Flying Dutchman was a serious disappointment, because from a potentially intriguing variant on the folktale, it turned into the kind of eccentric puzzle-solving that ate most of the later Redwall books alive. The characters happened to be human and no one was laying siege to their village, was about the only difference.
