Description
The Chadwick Lychgate, built in 1903, serves as one of the original entrances to Sunnyhurst Wood. It features a dressed sandstone base with moulded coping that supports a timber superstructure. Each side of the lychgate has four open bays, with carved arched braces that hold up the pitched tile roof and overhanging bracketed eaves. Both gables showcase mock timbered panels, carved arched braces, and decorative barge boards, each topped with a carved ogee-arch at the apex. The east gable is inscribed with the words 'Sunnyhurst Wood' in a gothic script, accompanied by carved floral motifs. The lychgate is equipped with double five-bar timber gates.
