Description

Iron railings enclosing three headstones are located northeast of the chancel of the Church of St George. These railings date from the late 19th century and form a square enclosure. The standards of the railings are twisted and feature trefoil-headed finials, with semi-circular braces connecting the standards. The corner standards are also twisted and adorned with wrought iron scrolls at the finials. The headstones within the enclosure were very overgrown at the time of the survey in 1986, but they are likely from the late 19th century as well.
