Description
The gatepiers, gates, and screens located on the west side of the churchyard date from 1758 to 1776, with the gates and screens likely being from the early 19th century. They are constructed from ashlar and wrought iron. The structure features a plain ashlar plinth and six rusticated gate piers topped with cornices and ball finials, with the central pair being taller and adorned with acorn finials. The central gates include an enriched frieze and an overthrow with scrollwork flanking a lantern. The screens consist of plain iron railings, and the single gates are ramped to one side.
