walls at entrance to Kingston
Terrace

GV II

Gate piers and flanking walls. c1826. Ashlar piers, coursed
squared gritstone walls. Piers square in section, approx 2m
high, with cornice, entablature and shallow pyramidal
capstone.
Boundary walls: to left of gate piers the wall links to No.1
Kingston Terrace (qv) and to right it continues along the road
line for approx 1m before returning to N along the line of the
former Eldon Walk for approx 30m; approx 1.5m high, with
rounded coping stones, the N line of the wall reduced in
height.
The entrance to Kingston Terrace also had a lodge and probably
a 3rd gate pier, creating a carriage and pedestrian gateway
originally.
