Cadw's description
Location
Situated at E entry to churchyard
History
Gatepiers and gates to churchyard, probably mid to later C19, cast-iron. The railings of the gates are similar to those at Broncastell, Capel Bangor, probably made in Aberystwyth. The gates were restored in 2003.
Exterior
Two cast-iron square gatepiers with panelled sides and moulded caps carrying pair of iron gates. Gates have double bottom rail and lock rail with cast-iron finials to dog bars, above lock rail, and similar finials above top rail.
Reason for designation
Included as C19 cast-iron gates of group value with the church at Capel Bangor.
