GV II

Wall, gate piers, gates and railings. 1700 and 1860. Coursed limestone rubble walls, ashlar piers with wrought-iron gates and railings. The wall, approx 1.5m high, runs south, from the south-west corner of The Vicarage (qv) for approx 100m, then turns eastward, where it has a plinth, in part, for approx 150m, to gates in North Street, which have gate piers with moulded cornices and swept, domed caps. The entrance to The Vicarage to the north-east, is by a flight of steps from Church Path; these are flanked by similar gate piers, that to the left is attached to a substantial coped coursed rubblestone wall which sweeps up with the steps and attaches to No.2 Court Barton (qv). The railings, which surmount the wall and enclose the garden, are low square-section alternate loop-and-rail design; those on the wall are embedded in a hedge. The double gates are of similar design.
