Description
Graveyard with various cut-stone markers, pre-1840-present. (ii) Gateway, post-1889, comprising pair of limestone ashlar piers with stringcourses, moulded capping, cast-iron double gates, sections of cast-iron flanking railings on broken coursed squared limestone plinths, limestone ashlar outer piers with stringcourses, moulded capping, and broken coursed squared limestone boundary wall to perimeter of site having cut-limestone coping.
Appraisal
A picturesque graveyard containing a group of markers of artistic design distinction with a number possibly predating the adjacent church (12310024/KK-20-10-24), thereby attesting to a long-standing ecclesiastical presence in the grounds. An elegantly-appointed gateway forming a neat group with an adjacent gateway of similar appearance leading to the church further enhances the streetscape value of the site in the locality.
