Description
The churchyard walls, railings, gates, and gate piers at St Anne's Church date from the 16th century. The low wall surrounding the churchyard is made of rendered brickwork and features interval chamfered buttresses. It has a ramped white stone coping. On Three Colt Street, there are short rusticated piers, while iron gates with spear finials are located on Commercial Road. Iron railings flank these gates and include an overthrow. The main entrance from St Anne's Passage, which is off Newell Street, is marked by tall rusticated gate piers topped with ball caps, leading to iron gates with an overthrow. This structure, along with the garden wall of the former St Anne's Rectory, Limehouse Town Hall, St Anne's Parish Church, the churchyard wall, railings, gates, gate piers, and war memorial, forms a group with No 2 and Nos 11 to 23 (odd) Newell Street and the Limehouse Church Institute on Three Colt Street.
