Description
Two fine sections of ironwork railings with ironwork gate piers flanking the driveway which were probably designed by Robert Lugar circa 1825. Large urn finials surmount round gatepiers with hinges, with an attached cluster of smaller urn-topped uprights. There is also a matching pair of ironwork gates. Spear railings sweep down with seven bays to the left and right divided by square groups of urn-finial uprights. The railings are attached at outer ends to square, castellated stone turrets with boundary walls beyond. The gates were restored in Spring 1987.
