Description

This pair of gates, railings, and screen walls, built between 1881 and 1883, were designed by Alfred Waterhouse for the 1st Duke of Westminster. They are made of wrought iron and stone. The structure features double gates in the center, with screen railings on a stone plinth on each side, flanked by stone wing walls.

The gates and railings are characterized by heavy, square horizontal and vertical rails, dogbars, and divided spiked cresting. The decoration includes wrought scrollwork with leaf terminals, as well as floral and asterisk-shaped bosses on the vertical rails. The stone plinths have tapered copings.

The pair of chamfered square gate piers are constructed from sandstone and topped with ball finials. The wing walls feature wedge copings, along with two sandstone piers and a terminal buttress on the left.
