OVERBURY CP - SO 9437 - 9537 9/121 Gate piers, gates and quadrant wall about 50 yards east of Overbury Court GV II
Gate piers, gates and quadrant walls. 1887 by Richard Norman Shaw for Robert Martin. Limestone ashlar and wrought iron. Tall square piers with moulded cornices, raised and moulded rectangular panels to front and rear and surmounted by ball finials on flattened pyramidal bases. Piers are linked by a very elaborate wrought iron archway at the centre of which is the initial "M" and the date "1887" which have been gilded. The pair of large gates are similarly ornate with scrolled and foliated detail. On the outer side of each pier is a small single iron gateway each having a segmental stone head and smaller, more simply detailed outer pier with a ball finial. The quadrant walls have a moulded coping and are about five feet high and the north wall curves east for about five yards and terminates in another similar small pier. The south wall is also about five feet high, curves east for about five yards and then runs due south for a further five yards. (Saint, A: Richard Norman Shaw, London, 1976).
