Description
The walls and gates surrounding the churchyard of St Bartholomew in Lostwithiel were built in the late 19th century. They are constructed from coursed slatestone rubble with granite dressings and feature cast iron gates. The south wall is approximately 4 meters long, the west wall is about 60 meters long (interrupted by the tower and vestry), and the north wall is around 50 meters long. The walls stand about one meter high on a granite plinth and are topped with granite roll-moulded saddle-back coping. In the north range, the wall reaches about 2 meters in height to accommodate the slope of the ground, featuring plain coping and square piers at intervals topped with pyramidal caps, where the wall steps down towards the east. There are two pairs of gates, each adorned with trefoil finials along the tops and 4-centred arched bracing, with trefoils in the spandrels of the upper panels.
