Gateway and walls enclosing 3 sides of the Roman Catholic Cemetery. 1849-50. By EG Paley. Sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings. The walls on the north and east sides have roughly-dressed triangular copings. The wall on the west side, which incorporates the gateway, has a roll-topped coping. The gateway is roofed with overlapping sandstone flags between 2 gables which have wedge-shaped coping stones giving a similar stepped appearance.
