What is recorded here
Pair of square-profile ashlar limestone gate piers with chamfered corners and carved caps, c.1820. Pair of cast-iron double gates and railings set on limestone plinths.
These gates and railings once served Hilltown House, a large house which was to the north. They forms a group with the surviving related structures in the former demesne. Both the masonry and the cast-iron work are clearly the work of skilled craftsmen, with their well executed design and detail.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
