Description
The gatepiers and quadrant walls to The Old Vicarage were likely built in 1861. The gatepiers are made of ashlar stone and feature monolithic square shapes with chamfered plinths and panelled cross-gabled tops. The walls are constructed from snecked stone and have arched coping, connecting to the north-west corner of the Old Vicarage outbuilding on the left. These structures are included for their group value.
