History

The lychgate is similar in style and construction to many on the island, a characteristic local type presumed to be C18 or C19.

Exterior

Simple lychgate built of local rubble masonry, stepped up at the sides; top with stone coping and pyramidal stone centrally placed over round-headed arch of rough stone voussoirs. The tall wrought iron gate has alternate tall and short vertical rails with arrowhead finials; side vertical rails are scrolled.
