MARLBOROUGH STREET
St Mary's Church Steps and forecourt wall
II
Circa 1850. The church stands higher than the medieval building, and the position of the former nave is marked by a series of steps, from the street to the west door, flanked by forecourt walls. Piers remain on either side of the entrance and at the north end; stone, with gables, chamfered corners and stepped moulding to the base. The walling has a flint base, the upper part being of stonework, pierced with a regular series of lancet openings, and a weathering cap, which steps upward to meet the piers. The southernmost pier is now missing.
