Description
The gate piers and wall between Stourton Club and The Spread Eagle were built around 1815 for Richard Colt Hoare. They feature dressed limestone square piers with cut rebates on the courtyard side and plain stepped cappings adorned with carved stone eagles' heads. The attached walls have swept weathered coping, leading up to the inn on the west side and the club on the east. In 1815, Colt Hoare renamed the inn from Stourton Inn to The Spread Eagle, which is the Hoare family's crest, and the piers and walls with the eagles' heads were added at that time.
