The front boundary wall, railings, and gate of the Baptist Chapel date from the early 19th century and extend approximately 12 metres in length. The boundary wall features an ashlar stone chamfered plinth. The iron railings are square in section and set in lead, with adjacent rails joining at mid-height and alternating with vertical rails that have spiked tops. The gate matches the design of the railings and is supported by square section iron posts topped with acorn caps.
