Description
Pair of ashlar limestone gate piers with plinths, cornices and surmounted by urns, built c. 1785, flanked by ashlar limestone walls. Cast-iron railings and pair of cast-iron gates, c. 1910.
Appraisal
These entrance gates relate to the former church to the north, and these structures form an interesting group of related structures. The materials utilised in the construction of these gates make a positive and notable addition to the streetscape. The carved limestone details and the crisp ashlar were clearly executed by skilled stone cutters and masons.
