sandstone walling with projecting plinth. The two outer openings of
three formed by the columns are filled with wrought iron screens based
on round rods, scrolls, spears and leaves. The matching gate is hung
from built-up metal piers with zig zag infilling and has a flat
overthrow with spears. Gervase Jackson-Stops in Country Life 19 July
