Gate Pier Attached To Number 57

This building is a gate pier attached to number 57, dating from the mid-18th century, with a later 18th-century front extension. It is constructed from coursed limestone rubble and features a gabled stone slate roof, with a brick stack at one end and a stone lateral stack at the rear. The structure is L-shaped with a front left wing and has two storeys. The front of the left wing has a two-window arrangement, with timber lintels over 20th-century casements and an early 19th-century eight-pane sash window. There is a 20th-century porch at the junction with the elevation to the right, which includes three mid-19th-century sash windows. The rear elevation has a two-storey, two-window range with keyed segmental brick arches over partly-blocked windows. A mid-19th-century extension to the left is attached to number 53. The interior has not been inspected but is likely to be of interest. A subsidiary feature is a limestone ashlar gate pier from around 1820, which has a moulded cornice and a pineapple finial, attached to the left side. This gate pier is included for its group value.
