Description
The wall with gateways and an attached privy along the south side of the churchyard of the Church of St Clement dates from the 19th century. It is constructed of slatestone and granite rubble, featuring stone and slate coping. The wall is approximately 70 meters long and 1.5 meters high. At the west end, there is a gateway with square plan rubble piers topped with pyramidal caps, and a single cast iron gate with a rounded top rail and knob finials. Attached to this end is a small privy, which has a pointed arched door and a blind pointed arched panel in rubble above the door. Opposite the south porch of the church, there is another gateway with a pair of granite piers that have arched tops and a pointed arched panel at the front. This gateway features a pair of similar cast iron gates with a 4-centred arched top rail and knob finials, with the mid rails displaying a circular design.
