Description

The forecourt walls, gate, gate piers, and railings at the front of Milburn House are low ashlar walls topped with segmental coping. The gate and end piers feature moulded bases and square, pyramidal tops. The cast-iron railings and central double gate are likely from the 19th century. The pointed standards are set diagonally and have a reeded design, while a pointed arch with inner cusping connects the adjacent standards. This structure is included for its group value.
