Outer piers with pilastered panels carved above impost level, bearing simple oval motifs. Full entablature with cornice and substantial blocking course, recessed at centre. Rear elevation spared adornment and articulation; moulded archway at centre, narrow piers flaniking, and blocking course flush with wallpane. Former rectangular-plan lodges, slightly advanced from triumphal arch to roadside, demolished (1991); remnants to dwarf wall level flanking arch.
