Churchyard Walls And Gates North And East Of Church Of St John

The churchyard walls and gates located to the north and east of the Church of St John were built around 1888 by R Curwen. These structures enclose the grounds of the Methodist church. They are made of rock-faced stone with ashlar dressings, featuring low walls that have chamfered ashlar coping. The walls, from which railings have been removed, are punctuated by wide piers topped with roll-moulded hipped coping. The entrances to the hall and church are marked by wrought-iron gates that include scrolled spandrels and decorative elements, spear-headed dog bars, intermediate bars, and twisted finials on the principal supports. An additional entrance to the southeast of the church currently has no gates.
