Description
Entrance gates to site of demolished Church of Ireland church, erected c.1800, comprising square-profile tooled limestone piers with pyramidal caps and rendered bases, with decorative wrought-iron double-leaf gates having cast-iron spearheads.
Appraisal
Well cut piers which are an indication of the quality of the now-demolished Church of Ireland church which stood behind Main Street on the site still known as the Church Meadow. Carefully cut and tooled, they show evidence of skilled stone masonry. The wrought-iron gates with cast-iron spear heads add visual and artistic interest.
