ST04SW OLD CLEEVE CP CHAPEL CLEEVE

1/67 Pair of finial obelisks, about 27 metres West of Chapel Cleeve Hotel

-

GV II

Pair of obelisk finials acting as garden ornaments. Perhaps C16, reset early C19. Doulting stone, about 2 metres high. Slightly tapering, square in section with concave sides and acanthus leaf decoration on ridges, gabled plinths and moulded cornice with poppyhead tops. It is possible that these finials came from Farifield House (qv) Stogursey Parish since finials were taken off the house in the late C18 apart from smaller ones on the porch which bear some similarities to these at Chapel Cleeve Hotel; and the architect of the early C19 enlargement of the house, Richard Carver, also did minor alterations at Fairfield in 1815.
