Brighton and Preston Cemetery:
entrance gates, walls, piers and
railings
GV II
Entrance gates, walls, piers and railings to Brighton and
Preston Cemetery. Dated 1885 over the side arches. Buff
terracotta, flint and wrought-iron.
The gates form part of a terracotta screen of 5 bays, the
central bay broader and higher, forming the carriage arch.
Late Gothic in style.
The carriage arch consists of panelled and pinnacled piers,
the arch between having a pointed-arched intrados and gabled
extrados, the tympanum filled with quatrefoil ornament with
the words 'BRIGHTON & PRESTON CEMETERY' superimposed.
Each of the 2 narrower bays on either side reproduces the
extrados/intrados arrangement, but with a Tudor-arched opening
below it, the inner bay on either side forming a pedestrian
entrance, the outer filled with a wrought-iron screen.
Wrought-iron gates to all 3 entrances with scrolling and
cusped ironwork.
The design of the inner, north side is the same as the south
without the lettering. Dwarf walls, connected to the gateway,
curve round into Hartington Road; they are of flint with
terracotta coping, and have piers with crested tops, and
wrought-iron railings between.
