Gate piers, gates, walls and railings about 10 yards north-east of Lodge of Holme Lacy House

GV II

Gate piers, gates, walls and railings. Probably early C19. Sandstone and limestone ashlar and wrought iron. Walls and gate piers are aligned in a curve roughly west-south-west/east-north-east. Six gate piers have hammered rusticated finish and deep plain cornices. The inner pair have pyramidical cappings; the lower outer two pairs are linked by dwarf quadrant walls and have large gadrooned limestone urns in place of pyramidical cappings. Central two-leaved gates have scrolled tops to main bars and dog bars. Pedestrian gates between two inner pairs of piers are of a similar design but with curved top rails rising to higher inner piers. Railings between outer piers have pointed bars and two main bars with finials. Attached to the easternmost pier is a curved squared sandstone wall with a plain capping. It is possible that the urns may be early C18 in date.
