Pair Of Gate Piers 103 Metres South Of East End Of Church

These gate piers date from the early 18th century and are located 103 metres south of the east end of the church. They are constructed of brick with stone dressings and form a pair of tall square structures. Each pier features a stone plinth base and a moulded stone plinth top. At the top, there are stone corniced caps that are surmounted by carved stone urns.

The east and west faces of the piers have arched niches above the plinths, which include stone strings at the base of the arches, stone key blocks, and stone shells within the niches. Above the niches, there are moulded stone panels. The north and south faces have brick pilasters that accommodate the gate hinges, capped by stone moulded cornices and scrolls.

These gate piers were originally part of the former Manor House built for the Earl of Craven by Sir Balthazar Gerbier and William Wynne, which was destroyed by fire in 1718.
