Description
The west entrance to St Stephen's churchyard was built in 1911 to commemorate the Coronation of George V. It features coursed, squared rubble with stone coping. The wrought-iron gate is set within a pointed arch, topped with an apex cross and a stepped gable above. The adjoining walls are not of particular interest. This structure is included for its group value.
