Description

These late 18th-century gate piers, walls, and an attached building form part of the boundary to Devonport High School for Boys. The walls are constructed of Plymouth limestone rubble with granite ashlar gate piers. A semi-circular gateway was designed to allow carriages to turn. 19th-century iron gates are present. The walls run along the north road frontage before turning northeastward for approximately 50 metres, then westward, and finally curving northeastward for about 70 metres towards what was formerly a creek. A 19th-century outbuilding is attached to the south side of the road-frontage wall. This building is constructed of Plymouth limestone, with a hipped slate roof and a hip-roofed central dormer. The single-story front has three windows with small, high-set openings, a wide doorway to the left with a planked door, all set within dressed stone surrounds. The interior of the outbuilding has not been inspected.
