Description

Gateway, c.1800, comprising pair of limestone ashlar piers with moulded capping having cast-iron double gates with central finials and cast-iron railings on limestone plinth walls with decorative finials. Section of cast-iron railings continuing to south-east flanking avenue to house.

Appraisal

This gateway, which has been well maintained, is an attractive feature on the streetscape and forms a neat group with the gateway to north-west (11816044/KD-16-26-44). The construction of the gate piers is an example of the high quality of stone masonry practised in the locality. The gates and railings are good examples of early surviving decorative cast-iron work.
