The Gate Piers, Gates And Boundary Railings, About 20 Metres South East Of Cliff House

The gate piers, gates, and boundary railings located about 20 metres southeast of Cliff House are likely from the 18th century. They are made of Doulting stone and wrought iron. The gate piers are set diagonally in the Adam style, with a base measuring approximately 400 mm square. Each pier features four corner columns with reeded panels between them, plinths, and quasi-Gothic capitals topped with step and lidded urns that are decorated with swags. Overall, the piers stand about 3.5 metres high. The gates match the railings, which are closely spaced and set on low semi-circular stone walls that are coped, featuring waisted spikes and urn finials on the standards. The design includes quarter circle returns into the gateway. This is a good example of its kind, although the south pier, gate, and railings were reported to be damaged in October 1983.
