Description

The gatepiers and attached walls located to the west of the Roman Catholic Church of All Saints date from the late 18th century or early 19th century for the walls, and the mid-19th century for the gatepiers. The walls are made of horizontally-tooled stone, while the gatepiers are constructed from tooled-and-margined stone. The square gatepiers feature pyramidal caps, and the attached walls have gabled coping that flanks the approach to the church. The wall on the west side serves as a revetment for the raised graveyard and includes a canted embayment with a flight of five steps leading up to the church door. This wall then returns east to connect with the south-west corner of the church, where there is an 11-metre length of flat-coped wall running south from the same corner. These structures are included for their group value.
