Description
The structure consists of a wall, railings, gates, and gate-piers that serve the Methodist Chapel, built in the late 19th century. The low rubble wall features saddleback coping, while the gate-piers are made of ashlar and include a plinth, cornice, and capping. The entrance is marked by wrought-iron double gates, which have bars topped with spear finials. The cast-iron railings display a variety of spear finial patterns and are interspersed with moulded bars. There is also a wicket-gate that matches the design of the railings.
