Description

This is a group of three pinnacles located in the garden to the north of Barnwood Court in Gloucester. They date from around 1350 and are made of ashlar stone. Each pinnacle has an identical design, featuring a square base with an offset chamfered plinth that leads to plain shafts. These shafts rise into a crowning gablet on each face, with the edges of the shafts and the eaves of the gablets adorned with ball flower moulding. At the base of the adjoining gablets, there are boldly projecting carved gargoyles on three of the four corners. In 1907, three of these corner pinnacles were removed from the tower of the Church of St Mary de Crypt on Southgate Street and were placed at the corners of a rectangular paved area on the west side of the garden of Barnwood Court.
