Cadw's description
Location
Situated directly opposite end of Orchard Street.
History
Entrance gates and railings to Baptist chapel of 1844, of locally-made and crude but attractive wrought iron.
Exterior
Short lengths of wrought iron rails on white-painted rendered walls each side of small painted stone pyramid-topped gatepiers with double gates. Railings have top and bottom rail and scrolled finials of flat strip shaped to a kind of fleur-de-lys, the gates have beaten metal large spearheads above top rail and above mid rail, over dog bars.
Reason for designation
Included as unusual locally-made ironwork and for group value with the chapel.
