Description

Two gate piers, formerly associated with Stone Lodge, were built around 1910 to a design by Thomas Mawson for Lord Leverhulme. They are located on either side of the track that led from Roynston Lane to Stone Lodge. Constructed of gritstone in a rustic style, the piers are circular in plan and stand approximately 1.5 meters tall. Each pier is topped by a dome that sits on an overhanging course.
