Description
The churchyard gates and gate piers date from around 1807 and are made of wrought iron, while the gate piers are constructed of ashlar sandstone from the late 17th century to early 18th century. These features were created for William Hall/Wharton. There are three gate piers that are chamfered, rusticated, and quoined, with chamfered bases, moulded cornices, and ogee caps. The piers flank a single gate and a pair of double gates, which have spear finials on plain bars and diagonal braces on the lower sections. It is believed that the piers originated from the site of the old Gillingwood Hall, the residence of the Wharton family, which was destroyed by fire in 1750. The gateway previously enclosed the grounds of the Vicarage, which was once a common open space and part of Kirk Street.
