Description

This lych gate, located about 20 meters northeast of the Church of St Anne, was likely built in 1882 by Samuel Hooper of Hatherleigh. It features a combination of Polyphant stone, granite, and Hatherleigh ashlar used in a polychromatic style. The gate has a gabled, slated roof with timber gable ends, which are supported by boldly moulded wooden brackets on slightly battered walls. The entrance has a chamfered pointed arch made of timber boarding, with a patonce cross at the rounded apex of each gable. The openwork timber gate includes moulded finials on the stiles, strap hinges with trefoil finials, and an iron ring latch with a decorative backplate. Additionally, the lych gate has stone-topped benches.
