What is recorded here
Gate piers, carved c.1760, and moved to Laban from Cregaclare. Rendered lower walling and flanking walls. Top of each pier is of decoratively carved limestone comprising string course with Greek key and fluted detail, frieze having garland to front and fluting to sides, moulded cornices and ball finial with Greek key detail.
These pier tops are of very decoratively carved limestone displaying a host of Classical detailing. Clearly from the gates of a country house, namely nearby Cregaclare, their removal to Laban has nevertheless given them prominence in a public setting.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
