Exterior

Gates and railings. Two Gothic stone gatepiers at NW angle and two lengths of iron railings on concrete plinth and rubble lower walls, one running E to corner of No 2 Main Street, the other N to gate at corner of Nos 2-4 Northgate St. The gates have massive stone piers of grey limestone with plinth, square chamfered shaft, machicolated cornice and heavy cross-gabled cap with trefoil panels in gables, roll-moulds on top. Double gates with big fleur-de-lys outer finials, smaller fleur-de-lys finials to main uprights and dog-bars. Double mid-rails, top rails ramped up to inner upright. Similar railings with larger fleurs-de-lys to stanchions.
