Description

The entrance gates to Number 1 (Northill Grange) are 18th-century wrought iron gates. They are bowed in shape and feature a decorative central panel, topped with ornamental cresting. On either side of the gates, there are fixed panels that each display three anthemions. The red brick piers that flank the gates were rebuilt in the 20th century.
