Description

The gate piers, gates, overthrow, walls, and railings located east of the Church of St. John the Evangelist were constructed in 1869, possibly by E. Bassett Keeling. The piers and walls are made of snecked sandstone with ashlar dressings, while the gates feature cast and wrought iron. The tall, square piers have plinths, rebated corners, and bands with crescents carved on each side, along with blind trefoils on the gablets of the high-sloped coping. The walls are topped with chamfered coping. The gates include bands of cast-iron geometric tracery on spike-headed wrought-iron standards and dog bars. The railings have spiked standards and triple spear-headed principals. This structure is included for its group value with the church.
