Description
The entrance walls and gate piers to Byfleet Manor House date from the early 17th century and are constructed of red brick. They feature an English garden wall band and stone piers. The walls stand approximately 10 feet high and extend 120 feet from east to west and 60 feet from north to south, creating a courtyard in front of the house. The walls are buttressed on the return sides with triangular brick coping. There are two gate piers, each about 18 feet high, designed in the Jacobean mannerist style, adorned with strapwork on the attached pilasters and grotesque faces on the courtyard side. The piers are topped with spiked urn finials. This design is attributed to Wendel Dietterlin, as referenced by Aubrey in "de Architettura."
