Lych Gate At Approx 40M West Of Church Of Saint Mylor

The lych gate, located approximately 40 meters west of the Church of Saint Mylor, dates from the early 19th century and was re-roofed in 1928. It is constructed from shale rubble and features dressed granite for the animal grid, quoins, and coffin rest. The roof is made of dry Delabole slate, open at the eaves and at each gable end, and includes an oak bargeboard with a flattened ogee and cusped chamfering. The structure is square in plan, with side walls on the north and south, and a central coffin rest flanked by filled-in cattle grids and recessed stone benches on each side. The roof structure consists of oak with arch-braced trusses at either end. This lych gate is part of a group that includes the church, the detached tower, and the churchyard monuments.
