Description

The boundary walls and gateways to Number 19 are likely from the 19th century. They are constructed from local stone ashlar and random coursed stone, featuring oval copings of varying heights. There are two pairs of rectangular gate piers, each with plinths and moulded caps, along with wrought-iron gates that are also probably from the 19th century. This structure plays an important role in the setting of Number 19 and contributes significantly to the street scene.
