Description

The gate-piers west of the Church of St. Credan date from the late 18th century or early 19th century. They are made of dressed granite and feature chamfered granite copings. The rectangular gateway has fairly high side walls that flank a wide entrance, which includes a central coffin rest from the late 19th or early 20th century, likely replacing an earlier grid stile. Additionally, there is a round-arched iron overthrow from the 19th century.
