Description

Triumphal gateway in Rococo style. Stuccoed brick with raised stucco quoins and banding. Rusticated arch over carriageway beneath high pediment inscribed by 2 massive scrolls with a semi-circular top. In the centre of the pediment is a round headed niche, with shell cartouche over. The niche contains a classical female figure. Applied cartouches of cast concrete to each pier flanking the arch. This archway, by which the visitor may leave the village, complements the 2 entrance gateways.

Adjoining the gateway to the NW is a single-storey service block with rendered elevations and mono-pitch corrugated iron roof. The block has three round-arched entrances with boarded doors and vertically-slatted upper sections; a small link section of wall adjoins stepped-down to the L with small road-arched entrance and boarded door.
