Description

Two piers located about 100 metres east of the junctions with Moorside North and Moorside South were built in the late 18th century for Fenham Hall. They are made of sandstone ashlar and are tall, square structures featuring flat copings and ball finials. The piers have indented corners and tapered half-columns on their inner faces. There is an Ordnance Survey mark on the southern pier.
