Grade II listed steps and a pair of statues, dating from the late 17th century. There are seven ashlar steps with low balustrade walls, slightly moulded coping and square pedestals. On the pedestals are two life-size figures in Classical costume. Pevsner tentatively attributes these figures to C. G. Cibber, who carved a nearby sundial (qv) for Sir John Brownlow.
