Walls, gate piers, gates and railings. Late C17 and c1840.
Limestone rubble walls, Ham Hill stone gate piers and plinths,
and wrought-iron gates and railings. A full-height gate with
elaborate overthrow bearing gilded heraldic arms above a lion
face and leaves with florettes, has side-panels supported by
gate piers with raised-and-fielded panels, moulded cornices
and vases to the caps; there is a similar one to the left, and
taller c1840, ones to a carriage entrance to the right. These
have recessed panels similar to the aprons below the windows
of the house, pineapple finials and C20 double gates. A
coursed Ham Hill rubblestone plinth with a moulded coping,
supports c1840 spearhead railings which sweep up to the gate
piers at the centre. High limestone rubble walls extend approx
30m to each side. The arms on the gates (Merefield quartered
with Williams and Colson) date them, acccording to family
history, as late C17.
