Description
The churchyard wall, gates, and gate piers located to the north of the Church of St Peter and St Paul were built around 1870. The wall is made of flint and stands approximately 4 feet high, featuring courses of brickwork and a hipped brick cap. It has a cemented base and includes red brick integral pilasters at regular intervals. In the center, there are two flint piers topped with pyramidal caps, which support a lamp bracket and iron gates. This structure is included for its group value.
