GV II
Gates and gate piers. Dated 1829. Made by Thomas L Willshire to a plan by Mr Hooper. Lamps (now removed) were added in 1845. Openwork cast-iron, designed in Gothic style. Consists of double gates in centre with single gate at either side, these being flanked and separated by tall piers. Gates decorated with quatrefoils, spearheads and trefoil-headed panels. Gate piers square in section with similar detail. On top of each are 4 crocketed pinnacles with a taller pinnacle in the centre. The piers flanking the double gates carry small brass plaques inscribed: NEW IRON GATE MADE AND THE CHURCH YARD FLAT PAVED IN THE YEAR 1829. SAML. LINNINGTON, WILLM. ARTER, WARDENS. A simpler version of these gates, probably mid C19, stands further down Paternoster Row (qv), at the E entrance to the churchyard. (Harper's Albums, notes of Vestry Minutes: 37).
