The churchyard wall, built around 1836, runs for 30 metres along The Street and features two sets of gate piers. It is constructed from rubble stone and has pitched stone coping with a roll at the top. The east gateway leading into the Old Rectory has two gate piers made of rubble and dressed stone, each adorned with a gablet motif on either side. There are also gate piers for the pedestrian entrance to the church, which are similar in design.
