Description

The gateway and steps at the southeast entrance to the churchyard of the Church of St Ciricius and St Julitta are likely from the 18th century, leading to an earlier gateway. Constructed from granite, the flight consists of 12 granite steps, with a wall on the east side that is approximately 2 meters high and rises alongside the steps. The gateway features square rubble piers on both the right and left, each about one meter high. The gateway is paved in granite and has low walls on either side, with a bench along the top of the walls. There are 20th-century rails on each side of the steps.
