Piers and Gates at East Lodge and Flanking Walls

Large octagonal gate piers of dressed stone. On plinths with moulded top edges. At the level of the top of the gates is a frieze of blind quatrefoils between moulded bands. From this point the piers narrow slightly and are faced with 2 tiers of blind trefoil-headed arches. Domed cap stones with moulded tracery and scrolls, supporting lions couchant which face into the park. Double cast iron gates in plain style. The top rails curve up elegantly towards the centre. Single rail lock bar. In place of dog rails is a frieze of diagonal crosses with a boss in the centre of each cross. The gate piers are flanked by iron screens on a low plinth with moulded coping. The screens have Gothic decoration below the top rails, and a diamond frieze above with Tudor rose finials (missing from N section). The screens are flanked by plainer octagonal piers with flat cap stones with embattled tops. Snecked stone walls run E from these piers to the lodges.

From the lodges runs the extensive boundary wall of the park, particularly well preserved to the E and N. Rubble dry-stone wall with narrow saddleback coping resting on projecting flat stones. In some areas the coping is missing, whilst to the S along the A48, some sections have been rebuilt.
