Cast-iron railings with fleur-de-lis heads to rails, including the additional intermediate rails below the mid-rail, and urn finials on principal posts, mounted on a rusticated stone plinth wall in front of the two houses. Small foot gates similarly detailed, with decorative quatrefoil bracing below the mid-rail. To either side, brick garden walls curve inwards to the gate piers flanking the central entrance way.
