Description

Two pairs of gate piers with a wall adjoining to Oakley and Little Oakley were built around 1833 to 1850. The gate piers are made of ashlar over brick and stand approximately 2 meters high. They feature a chamfered plinth, channelled and vermiculated shafts, a roll-moulded band, a frieze, a shaped cornice, and 'cross-gabled' caps. The wall, which is about 1.75 meters high and 25 meters long, is constructed of gault brick with purple brick dressings and ashlar copings. It has a chamfered plinth, a decorative crowning band, and a modillion frieze. These structures are an integral part of a group of original piers that contribute significantly to the streetscape in The Park.
