Boundary Wall With Gate Piers And Gates To Chadwick Lodge

The boundary wall with gate piers and gates to Chadwick Lodge is a structure from the late 18th century and around 1843. It is made of coursed squared gritstone and features wrought-iron gates. The boundary wall runs along Crown Point Road, measuring approximately 20 meters long and 1.25 meters high. It has rounded coping stones to the left of the pedestrian gate and flat cap stones to the right.

The carriage entrance to Chadwick Lodge is marked by monolithic piers that are slightly taller than the wall, topped with groined designs. It features two-leaf gates with moulded rails, diagonal braces, and spearhead finials. The pedestrian gateway to the right has hinge blocks only, with a gate that includes leaf finials and scrolls on the top bar. This pedestrian gate opens onto a short flight of stone steps, which are bordered by a wall topped with railings. The railings have alternating straight and wavy bars, moulded standards, and connect to the basement wall and railings associated with Chadwick Lodge.

The boundary of the property was modified when Crown Point Road was constructed around 1843, as shown on the Ordnance Survey map of 1847. The carriage entrance gates and railings likely date back to the late 18th century, as their design is similar to the balustrade at the side entrance steps and the main staircase of the house. This structure is included for its group value.
