Description

The gateways, steps, and walls along the east and north sides of the churchyard of the Church of St Meubred were built in the 19th century. They consist of slatestone rubble drystone walls that serve as retaining walls enclosing the churchyard. The granite steps on the southeast side include a flight of ten steps, accompanied by a low rubble wall on the left with stepped granite coping. At the top of these steps, there are low flanking walls with chamfered coping and a pair of plain granite monolith piers, each about one metre high, featuring rounded tops. A wooden gate with a pointed arch and cast iron banding is present at this entrance. On the north side of the churchyard, there is a similar gateway, complete with flanking walls, piers, and a gate.
