Description
The pair of gate piers, located 20 metres south-west of Ireson House, date from the 19th century. They are constructed from local rubble and ashlar stone. Each square rubble pier measures about 600mm wide and stands approximately 1.5 metres tall. They feature cornice caps and step blocks with arched decoration, topped with cylindrical, panelled, and crenellated elements resembling a chimney pot or a rook chess piece. These gate piers were likely erected by Thomas Moody around 1851, coinciding with the installation of new boundary walls and the creation of a new access to Ireson House, enhancing the property's overall setting.
