Description
The lych gate, located to the north of the graveyard of St Michael and All Angels Abbey Church in Belmont, is a timber structure featuring a tiled roof. On either side, there are curved walls made of rubble sandstone with limestone dressings. The piers and gate are believed to be the work of either E.W. Pugin or P.P. Pugin. The square piers, topped with domed caps, are arranged in pairs and are positioned diagonally at the ends of the curved walls, marking the junction with the enclosure walls of the graveyard, which are not included in this assessment. The wooden gateway has angled braces with chamfered edges, and the tiled roof displays alternating rows of plain and fish-scale tiles. The pair of gates features chamfered uprights and a middle rail with a cross on their upper bodies. These details are similar to those found on the gates and gate piers located approximately 30 yards east of the Abbey Church of St Michael and All Angels.
