Description
The gate piers and attached walls, located approximately 40 metres north of The Hall in Thornton Dale, date from the late 18th century and were partly rebuilt in the 20th century. They are constructed of coursed sandstone rubble with ashlar coping. The gate piers stand about 5.0 metres high, featuring stepped plinths and flat tops, with the original ball and pedestal finial still intact on the left pier. The wall on the right spans a nearby beck, supported by two arches made of voussoirs. The wall on the left ramps up from about 0.75 metres and ends in a rebuilt square pier topped with a pyramidal cap. Both walls have pilaster piers and flat coping.
