Description
The structure consists of a dwarf wall, gate piers, railings, and gates associated with No 5, known as Eastway House. The dwarf wall is made of brick and topped with stone coping. The gate piers are panelled brick, featuring moulded and stepped stone caps along with stone urn finials. The railings have a spear-headed design, and the wrought iron gates include an overthrow. It is suggested that the gates and overthrow may have been relocated from a house near Sherborne. This dwarf wall, gate piers, railings, and summerhouse are part of a group with No 5 (Eastway House).
