Description
The gate piers, gates, and garden walls located 20 meters to either side in front of the Old Hall date from the early 18th century, with 20th-century gates. The stone gate piers feature a moulded plinth, a tall fielded panel, a moulded cornice, and a stepped capstone. Between the piers is a pair of well-crafted 20th-century wrought iron gates. The walls on either side are constructed of orange brick in English bond, topped with a flat stone coping. These walls rise up to the gate piers, with the left side ending in a square pilaster where the coping ascends to a finial. The right side retains all of the original listed wall.
