ANDOVER 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.
