Gatepiers, Gates, And Railings At North Entrance To Churchyard Of Church Of St Illogan

The gatepiers, gates, and railings at the north entrance to the churchyard of the Church of St Illogan are made of dressed granite and feature cast-iron railings and gates, along with a wrought-iron lamp arch. Likely built in the mid to late 19th century, the structure includes a set of four plain granite posts that stand approximately 2.5 meters high, each with rounded tops. The central pair of posts are widely spaced and support a 4-centred arch made of wrought iron, which holds a central pendant lamp flanked by scrolls and topped with a finial. The gates and railings on either side are mounted on a low chamfered plinth and are designed in the Gothick style. They feature slender shaft bars with alternating spear and trident tops, trefoil-headed panels, and low dog-bars.
