Description

SK 81 SE BURLEY 3/10 Burley on the Hill: Entrance gates and gate piers GV II*

Paired entrance gates and gate piers with flanking pedestrian gates and outer piers. 1700, with ironwork by Joshia Lord, the gates were originally flanked by lodges and walling, swept away by Repton. The main gate piers are rusticated, square in section, with fluted pilasters and plain cornice capped by griffins. The outer piers are square in section with moulded panels and cornice capped by urns. The central pair of gates consist of 2 panels each, the lower with richly wrought foliage, the upper with spearhead shafts and foliate borders. Over the gates a curved wrought iron over-archrises to a monogram and coronet crowned by scrolly foliage. The outer gates similarly consist of 2 panels, and each has a concave head, curving up to meet the main piers.
