Description
The gate piers and screen walls date from around 1770 and are likely designed by John Carr. They serve as the entrance to the former Easthorpe Hall, which has since been demolished. The gate piers are made of sandstone ashlar and stand approximately 2.25 metres high, featuring alternately long and short quoins that create rusticated bands. Each pier is topped with stepped pyramidal caps, with the inner caps adorned with ball finials. The screen walls are constructed of hammer-dressed sandstone, with a tooled plinth and flat coping, and rise to about 2 metres in height. The outer left pier is currently overgrown with creeper.
