Description

The lych gate south of the Church of Saint Feock is a structure dating from the early 19th century, with later modifications made in the 19th century. It features walls made of slatestone rubble and has a slate-hung room above, topped with a gable-ended asbestos slate roof. Above the gateway, there is a small square vestry room supported by the side walls, with steps on the east side leading to a doorway on the first floor. The north front, which faces the church, includes a central canted bay window on the first floor. The south entrance is marked by a pair of braced wooden gates. Inside, the side walls of the open ground floor gateway have narrow stone rubble benches. This lych gate is included for its group value with the church.
