Description
This pair of gate piers, dating from the 18th century, is located about 3 metres north of the sign for The Dolphin on Westerleigh Road. They are made of limestone and are square in shape, standing approximately one metre high. Each pier features two fielded panels on the front and rear, and has a flat top with a moulded edge, which was noted to be very worn at the time of the survey in October 1984.
