Gateway, c.1940, comprising four limestone ashlar panelled tapered piers with stringcourses, pyramidal capping, cast-iron double gates and cast-iron flanking pedestrian gates. Set back from line of dual carriageway with former road to front.
This gateway, which is an integral component of the Kerdiffstown House estate, is an attractive feature on the side of the dual carriageway and serves to convey to the passer-by the opulence of the main house. The construction of the piers reveals a high quality of stone masonry practised in the locality.
