Gateway, extant 1837, on a symmetrical plan with camber-headed opening framing timber boarded double doors. Road fronted at entrance to grounds of Oakly Park.
A gateway making a pleasing visual statement in a suburbanised street scene at an entrance on to the grounds of the Oakly Park estate: meanwhile, a benchmark remains of additional interest for the connections with cartography and the preparation of maps by the Ordnance Survey (established 1824).
