Description
The arches at St Martin's Gate School are two 17th-century dressed granite doorways with four-centred arches, built into a later rendered and painted wall. These doorways originally provided entrances to houses on the site, which were removed in 1893. The houses were adjacent to the 14th-century town wall.
