Description

The gate piers and gates stand directly west of the west porch to St Tegai's Church with between the two a broad yew-lined avenue, defined to both north and south by a low slate-slab topped wall with pointed iron railings and unusual axe-shaped standards; gates at east end lead to Talgai Hall and The Old School House. The gate piers at the eastern end of the avenue are of Anglesey limestone ashlar and have 2 tiers of trefoil-headed blind tracery panels with moulded plinths and shaped capping flanked by quadrant walls, also of ashlar, ending in lower and plainer piers; heavy ramped wooden double gates between inner piers have 2 tiers of trefoiled arches with hollow spandrels and iron-spiked tops. South of the gate piers the wall is of rubblestone with slate coping and iron railings as in the avenue to the church entrance and follows curve of lane to south-east. To the east of the church is the park wall to Penrhyn Castle and the churchyard extension is defined on its eastern side by a slate slab and wire fence.
