Description

MATERIALS: flint rubble set in lime mortar.

DESCRIPTION: the structure consists of a tall, slightly pointed arch with abutments and a semicircular alcove behind. The flint rubble masonry is treated in a 'rustic' manner suggestive of ruination or of natural rock: the abutments on either side of the arch are mere irregular spurs, and the 'gable' above is crowned with a series of crooked pinnacles. There is evidence that the structure once had a roof, presumably a timber lean-to with rafters running from the top of the alcove wall up to the inward face of the arch; this has now wholly disappeared.
