Cadw's description
Location
At top of the approach stairs at the south side of Llwyn-ynn Hall site.
History
C17 gatepiers, probably contemporary with Llwyn-ynn Hall.
When inspected the piers remained but only fragments of the timber gates.
Exterior
A pair of gatepiers with lozenge designs on the front faces. Moulded rebate for hanging the gates at rear. Elongated globe finials with coolie hats, now missing or broken. The house site wall adjacent is in rubble masonry, the copings crow-stepped up to the piers. Two flights of five steps in front.
Reason for designation
Included, despite deteriorating condition, for group value with the remnant of Llwyn-ynn Hall.
