Pair of gates with piers and wing walls, 1889, by John Douglas for 1st

surround. Spiked dogbars at base. Scrollwork, some with leaf
terminals, at sides and floral and leaf pattern at top of gates.
Square stone piers with recessed corners, projecting moulded plinths
and classical moulded projecting capitals, surmounted by talbot dogs
rampant, bearing shields. The north shield bears a cross; the south

have shaped copings and piers with stone ball finials. Plain stone
side walls to forecourt, with flush copings, open towards Wrexham Road
