Lychgate at Malpas Church

The lychgate at Malpas Church is a Grade II listed structure made of red squared sandstone with Bathstone details and quoins, topped with a pitched slate roof. It features wide round arches on the west and east sides, adorned with chevron detailing. The hollow-chamfered hoodmouldings are supported by carved animal headstops, and quarter-shafts are positioned high on the corners. Modern metal gates are present. On the east face, in the top-right corner, there is a metal plaque that reads: ‘To the beloved memory of Henrietta Stanwell, who died on the 2nd day of September 1850, and was buried in a vault within this churchyard. This lychgate was erected by her husband, brothers and sisters’.
