Description

This is a portion of the south boundary wall with railings, located 15 metres south of the Church of St. Andrew, dating from the 19th century. The wall is constructed from local lias stone that has been cut and squared, topped with lias stone copings. Above the wall are cast-iron railings that stand about 600 millimetres high, featuring a heavy pattern with cross and fleur-de-lys caps. The heavy matching gates are cast in one piece and include cusped tracery on the bottom rail, as well as cusping on the middle and top rails, and are hung on ogee-braced standards. This structure is an important element in the setting of the church and the village green.
