PARISH OF ECKINGTON CHURCH STREET Entrance gatepiers and attached boundary wall to Eckington Rectory

II

Gatepiers and boundary walls. Late C18. Ashlar coal measures sandstone gatepiers each rising from a chamfered plinth base, square in plan, with boldly projecting cornice supporting the fluted pedestal of a substantial ball finial. Attached to either side of the entrance are substantial coursed masonry boundary walls with half-round copings, which define the curved boundary of Church Street. To the south the walls extends 45 metres and terminates at a small gateway with plain low gatepiers. To the east the walls extends 15 metres at gatepier cornice height, the portion immediately adjacent to the pier with a blocked quoined doorway. The wall then steps outwards and continues until it reaches Rectory Cottage, where it is pierced by a quoined door opening to the building.
