Description
The railings, piers, and gates at the south-east entrance to the churchyard of the Church of St Mary were built in the late 19th century. They feature central piers made of coursed and squared rubble with hipped caps, and paired gates made of wrought and cast iron. On each side, there is a length of wrought-iron railings, with the right side adorned with ball finials. There is also a further coursed and squared rubble pier to the left, which has a hipped cap. These structures are primarily included for their group value with the Church of St Mary.
