Gate Piers, Gate and Steps Approximately 15 Metres South of Tower of Church of St Breaca

The gate piers, gate, and steps located approximately 15 meters south of the tower of the Church of St Breaca date from 1756, with a gate from the early 19th century. They are constructed from dressed granite and granite rubble, featuring wrought iron elements. The piers are designed as high-backed settles on either side of a granite cattle grid, which has been filled in. Each side of the gateway, both front and rear, has an inscribed recessed panel with letters in bold relief. The front (west) displays the letters HU on the left and 1756 on the right, while the rear (east) shows the letters SM on the left and RS on the right. The gate includes a curved brace with closer spaced bars below the lock rail, roundels on the lock rail, and a ramped top rail. Iron hanging and closing stiles with finials are affixed to the granite ashlar piers that form the outer ends of the settles. A simple iron handrail, supported by iron stanchions, serves as a balustrade on either side of the steps leading up to the gateway, with a scrolled design underneath. This gateway is similar to another located at the north northwest entrance to the churchyard.
