Description
This is a pair of gatepiers at the east entrance to Chavenage House, along with adjoining quadrant walls. They were likely built in the early to mid-18th century. The gatepiers are made of squared and dressed stone and feature a moulded cornice. They are rebated for gates, which are currently missing, and each gatepier has an elaborate carved large urn finial on top, reaching a total height of about 3.5 meters. Each gatepier is attached to a coped drystone wall that slopes down to the quadrants, which connect to the estate perimeter wall at a straight joint at the end of the cut stone, standing about 2 meters tall.
