Description

The gate piers and boundary wall located south-west of 20 Market Place were built in the mid-to-late 18th century, with the gate piers being rebuilt in the 19th century.

The gate piers are made of red brick with stone dressings and are square in shape. They provide access from Whitsands Road to the south-west. Each pier is topped with a square stone base and features carved stone vase finials that have gadrooned decoration and pineapple caps. The piers support late-20th century metal gates.

The boundary wall extends approximately 30 meters north-east from the east gate pier. The lower section of the wall has bricks laid diagonally, while the mid-height section of the north-west elevation includes courses of flint rubble. The wall is capped with six courses of conventionally laid red brick.
