The entrance includes ashlar piers topped with lamps and outer semicircular arches set within rubble walls, each with two-leaf wrought-iron gates. A tall retaining wall runs along Charlotte Street and Hill Street, extending along the northeast side of the churchyard and connecting to the side walls on Hill Street.
