Description

The lychgate at the Church of St. Lawrence was built in 1882 by Bodley and Garner. It features a combination of ashlar and timber framing with a slate roof. The gabled porch has a three-centred moulded arch that leads to two leaf panelled half doors topped with decorative spikes. In the gable, there is a cusped ogee niche that holds a standing figure of St. Lawrence with a grid iron. On either side of the porch are stepped sections of ashlar-faced wall with moulded copings. The sides and rear of the lychgate are made of oak, showcasing arched tie beam construction and a moulded rear arch.
