Description
Moor House gate piers and walls are 18th-century structures made of ashlar sandstone and brick. Located approximately 20 meters east of the house, there is a pair of gate piers featuring moulded caps and pineapple finials. A brick wall, which includes similar piers and four additional finials, extends about 30 meters eastward from the house. The gate piers have moulded caps and finials, with stone-coped brick wing walls. At the end of the drive, there is a wrought-iron gate. These features are included for their group value.
