Description

The walls and attached gatearch located approximately 50 metres south and east of the Rectory are likely from the late 18th century and 19th century, with some reset medieval masonry and restoration in the 20th century. The walls are constructed of squared coursed limestone, with the wall adjacent to the road featuring ashlar coping. The wall separating the Rectory garden from the churchyard has soldier course copings, restored in the 20th century. The medieval gatearch between the Rectory garden and the churchyard has a two-centred arch head with a chamfered surround. To the right of the gatearch, there are three two-light medieval windows; the centre window includes a quatrefoil circle, while the window on the far right has a central column. This medieval masonry was likely built as a folly by Reverend Roberts around 1823, using materials from All Saints Church, now known as All Saints Chancel. The structure is included for its group value.
