Description
The gate piers and associated wall to Townend Cottage, Home Farm, Manifold Cottage, Dove Cottage, The Cottage, and Number 2 Orchard View were built around 1855, possibly by the architect George Gilbert Scott. The structure is made of ashlar stone and features a coped parapet. It consists of approximately 300 yards of low wall, which is two courses high, and is interrupted between The Cottage and Number 2 Orchard View. There are five pairs of square-section gate piers with stop-chamfered edges, each topped with gabled caps that have roll-moulded ridges; the caps on the piers for Dove Cottage are truncated. This wall and gate piers are an important part of the picturesque setting of the model village created by Scott.
