Description
The steps, gate-piers, gates, and adjoining walls flanking the path to the south doorway of the Church of St Buryan date from the early 19th century. They feature dressed granite and wrought-iron and cast-iron gates. The wide gateway is flanked by high side walls, and there is a flight of six granite steps leading up to the gates, which are hung halfway into the gateway. Inside the gates, there is a central coffin rest, and low walls connect to the inner side of the gateway, flanking the path that leads to the church's south doorway. The walls are made of dressed granite and granite rubble with square-edged copings. The gates have arch braces beneath the lock rails, pointed arches above the lock rails, and the bars are topped with cast-iron fleurs-de-lis finials.
