After examining all the records and other relevant information and having carefully considered the
architectural and historic interest of this case, the criteria for listing are still fully met. The gate piers to the south-west of the former Vicarage, Spreyton should remain on the statutory list at Grade II.
The list entry for the gate piers circa 73m to the south-west of the former vicarage, Spreyton, should be
amended for the following principal reasons:
* Accuracy: the GIS marker should be moved to accurately reflect the location of the gate piers;
* Updating the list entry: the list entry should be updated to give a much fuller account of the special interest of the gate piers in line with current practice.
