Description
The structure consists of gatepiers located to the north east, south east, and south west of the church, along with a boundary wall surrounding the churchyard. There is a lychgate situated 6 meters to the south of the church and a drinking fountain positioned in the boundary wall to the north east. These features date from around the mid-19th century and are constructed from dressed granite and rubblestone.
The gatepiers to the north east are set within a rubblestone wall and are made of cut granite blocks with moulded plinths and caps. They feature wrought iron gates topped with lantern finials, and there is a wrought-iron overthrow, possibly from the late 19th century, although the lantern has been removed. The gatepiers to the south west of the west tower are also made of rubblestone and granite blocks, square in plan, and have a wrought iron gate with a later 19th or early 20th-century overthrow and lantern. The gatepiers to the south east of the east end of the church are made of rubblestone, square in plan, and have moulded granite caps, along with wrought iron gates and a late 19th or early 20th-century overthrow.
The lychgate, built in 1899 in memory of Jane Davell Jago of Coldrenick, features a coursed stone and granite base with open timberwork and a steeply pitched slate roof with gable ends. The gable ends include arch-braces to crenellate tie beams, open cusped panels above, and plain barge boards, with a cross at the apex. The lychgate has a rectangular plan and a south entrance with timber gates and a wrought iron lampstand that is corbelled out beneath the gable.
The drinking fountain and horse trough are located in the north elevation of the rubblestone wall to the north of the church, dating from around 1910 in memory of Major General Jaco Trelawney. The granite horse trough is positioned beneath a 4-centred arch with a moulded hood and drips, and the basin is corbelled out. To the right side of the curved gable end, there is a drinking fountain beneath a trefoiled arch. This collection of features is included for its group value.
