Description
The lych gate, located immediately southwest of the Church of Holy Trinity, was built in 1891. It features a timber frame set on a plinth made of flint and brick, topped with stone and brick coping. The roof is gable-ended and covered with tiles, showcasing bands of fishscale tiles and decorative ridge tiles. The bargeboards are ornately cusped. Inside, the collar rafter roof includes brattished and inscribed tie-beams in the end gables. The outer gable displays open close-studding with a cross at the center, while the inner gable has a king-post and diagonal struts. Each side of the lych gate has four cusped lights. This structure stands in front of the west end of the Romanesque Church of Holy Trinity, designed by Sir G G Scott in 1842. The lych gate was erected in memory of Mr and Mrs Harry Oliver by their children.
