Lych Gate, Flanking Walls And Gates On North Side Of Church Of St Peter And St Paul

The lych gate, flanking walls, and gates on the north side of the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul were built in 1900 by Sir Edwin Lutyens for the Hylton family. The structure is made of coursed and squared rubble with freestone dressings and features a pyramidal stone tile roof topped with a cruciform finial. It has a triangular shape and is supported by three triangular section columns, with timber soffits on each side. The roof is constructed with elaborate arch-bracing. The flanking quadrant walls have copings and incised Latin text. There is a pair of simple wooden gates on the south side, along with piers that have flanking stone benches. The lych gate symbolizes the Trinity, and stone cobbles are arranged in a triangular pattern beneath it.
