Description
The churchyard wall and entrance gateway south of the Church of St. John the Evangelist were built in 1845 by Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin. The wall is made of dressed sandstone and runs along Ribby Road, featuring copings that resemble the profile of a mansard roof. The gateway has a stepped coping with a similar profile and includes a segmental pointed chamfered arch supported by chamfered jambs that are buttressed at the back.
