A granite doorway in a stone building. The doorway has two uprights with a groove cut on the inner edge. Across the top of the doorway are two more stones, cut on the inside to form an arch and square on the outside. These also have a groove cut on their inner edge, eight-pointed stars or flowers in the corners and the date of 1705 running across the joint between the two pieces. Perhaps surprisingly, the numbers are not carved two each side but 170 on the left and 5 on the right.
Within the doorway is a plank door with iron studs, handle and lock. The doorway is set within walls made of mostly granite laid in regular courses with thick mortar between. To either side are metal handrails and to the left is the edge of a window. Strong sun casts dark shadows within the doorway.
This doorway is on the south side of Meavy Church, Dartmoor, Devon.
