Description

The boundary wall and gate piers at Monklands House date from the mid-19th century. They are constructed of brick and feature stone copings. The wall is divided by pilasters that have flat pyramidal copings. To the left, two pilasters serve as gate piers, while the main gate piers on the right have concave steep pyramidal copings and were rebuilt in the late 20th century.
