Restored gateway into churchyard
On the north side of the churchyard of St. Giles in Chesterton is this gateway used in former times as a private entrance to the church from the Manor House.
The gateway was built circa 1630 by Sir Edward Peyto, the design attributed to Inigo Jones. The gateway has undergone restoration which was completed in December 1990.
Note a previous photo shows an iron gate

The gateway is Grade II listed.
