Description

The front garden area railings and piers south of Musbury House are early to mid-19th century features made of cast iron. They are set on a low stone rubble wall. The railings are decorated with vine motifs and are flanked by two pairs of cast iron gate piers topped with pineapple finials. The end piers are made of brick, with stone quoins and caps that have acorn finials. These elements are included for their group value.
