Description
Gateway, extant 1894, on a symmetrical plan comprising pair of drag edged rock faced limestone ashlar piers on chamfered plinths having ivy-covered capping supporting replacement spear head-detailed mild steel double gates. Set back from street at entrance to grounds of Athavallie House.
Appraisal
A gateway not only making a pleasing visual statement at the entrance on to the grounds of the Athavallie House estate, but also illustrating the continued development or "improvement" of the estate in the later nineteenth century.
