Description

Gateway, extant 1924, on a symmetrical plan comprising pair of drag edged rusticated limestone ashlar piers on plinths having shallow pyramidal capping supporting cast-iron double gates. Lane fronted at entrance to grounds of Westport House.

Appraisal

A gateway forming part of a neat self-contained group alongside an adjoining gate lodge (see 31211054) with the resulting ensemble making a pleasing visual statement at the latter day principal entrance on to the grounds of the Westport House estate.
