Description

The churchyard boundary wall in Sherbourne, dating from around 1864 and likely built at the same time as the church, is a low sandstone structure featuring saddle-back coping. It includes small gabled gate piers and corner piers. A timber lychgate was added in 1936. On the east and southeast sides of the churchyard, the wall is constructed of early 19th century red brick with stone coping.
