Description

The north-east gateway and railings at the Church of All Saints date from the 17th century and 19th century, respectively. The gateway is constructed from Ham stone and features wrought ironwork. It consists of a short, tall ashlar wall with stepped angled coping that returns down the sides. At the top, there are three pinnacles framing a moulded semi-circular archway, which includes a false keystone and impost blocks. The gate, dating from the early 19th century, displays Gothic arches, scrolls, barbed arrow points, and other Regency style decorations. Connecting the gateway to Church Lodge Cottage are wrought iron railings set on a stone plinth, which have plain necked arrow points.
