Description

The gate piers and screen walls at the entrance to Waterloo Promenade date from the mid-19th century. They are constructed from ashlar stone and feature cast-iron railings. The central pair of gate piers are chamfered and square, with moulded plinths and large square caps that have enriched segmental pediments. These caps are topped with the remains of cast-iron lamps. On either side of the entrance, there are low ashlar screen walls that are topped with a shortened railing. At each end of the structure, there is a square pier with a moulded plinth and a concave-sided pyramidal cap. This gateway is one of several similar designs created by Nottingham Corporation for entrances to the Forest and Waterloo Promenade.
